Benjamin Sesko has been linked with a move to the Premier League in recent weeks, and the likes of Newcastle United and Manchester United want to sign him.
According to Sky Sports Germany reporter Philipp Hinze, RB Leipzig have now received a written proposal from Newcastle worth around €80 million. The German club are now pondering whether to accept or reject the offer.
Man United ready to make their move for Benjamin Sesko
Meanwhile, Manchester United are still very much in the race to sign the player, and they have ‘made it clear’ to the German club that they are prepared to enter the bidding for the striker. Hinze claims that a bidding war could be about to start between the two clubs. Further transfer talks are planned, and it will be interesting to see where the 22-year-old ends up.
Fabrizio Romano adds that Manchester United will submit an official offer for the striker, and the player’s agent has now arrived in Germany ahead of a final decision regarding his future.
Sesko is one of the finest young attacking prospects in European football right now, and RB Leipzig will be looking to recoup as much as possible for him. The bidding war between the Premier League clubs will come as a huge boost for the Germans.
Both clubs could use Sesko
It is no secret that Manchester United and Newcastle are desperate to sign him. Both clubs need a quality striker next season. Manchester United have looked toothless in the attack with the likes of Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee. On the other hand, Newcastle could lose Alexander Isak, who is keen on a move to Liverpool. Sesko would be the ideal acquisition for both teams. He bagged 21 goals and six assists last season.
The 22-year-old will look to join a top club capable of fighting for trophies, and both teams are likely to be attractive destinations for him. Even though Manchester United are among the biggest clubs in the world, Newcastle have a very real chance of getting the deal done as well. They will be able to offer him UEFA Champions League football for the next season, and they are one of the wealthiest clubs in the world following their takeover.
Howay Newcastle just put a bigger bid in we have the money don’t be letting Man U steal another player, we have to do all we can to get Sesko.
Here we go again – another player can we, should we, maybe, not sure or do we just wait for another club to pick him up, who is running this the buying of players is a disgrace only a couple of weeks to the season starts and still messing about, the guy is 22 years old sticks the ball in the net this is a purchase we need to make, if the price goes up stick another year on his contract, bring back Amanda or I would love to take the role ( we don’t seem to have any idea what we want or how to get the players we need to join our club)
No time to waste this time around, as we need to act fast in this transfer market.
We shouldn’t repeat what happened last season. We need to be among the first 3 in EPL this season.
