(Video) Manchester United target Benjamin Sesko scores winner against Liverpool in friendly

Another statement performance from Red Bull Salzburg striker Benjamin Sesko.

Although the Austrian Bundesliga has already begun, RB Salzburg are still taking part in pre-season friendlies, with one played against Liverpool on Wednesday evening.

The 19-year-old striker, who has a similar physical presence as Erling Haaland, opened the scoring against Liverpool by capping off a slick RB Salzburg attack to seal a 1-0 win.

Sesko also fancies himself as a better alternative to Haaland!

Sesko has been linked with a move to Old Trafford and I’m sure his recent goal will at least lead to a few United fans watching more Salzburg matches this season. The same could be said for our scouts!

Moreover, Sesko already has one goal to his name in the league after the season opener against Austria Wien.

I have no doubt we will hear a lot more about Sesko in the future. He looks a real talent.
