Manchester United Target £62m Striker Following Impressive Scouting Report

According to recent reports, Manchester United are planning a move for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko after club scouts were impressed by his performance against Bayern Munich. The 21-year-old Slovenian forward scored within two minutes of kickoff, though his team ultimately lost 5-1.

Valued at around £58-62 million, Sesko would not come cheap. However, United are looking to bolster their attack, which has struggled at times this season. The young striker has 11 goals and 3 assists in 23 appearances across all competitions this campaign.

Sesko turned down a move to Arsenal last summer, but appears ready for a step up to a bigger club. He has been dubbed “the Slovenian weapon” by talent scouts for his impressive performances. A move for Sesko could help United move past Marcus Rashford’s potential departure and inject new life into their forward line.

While expensive, signing a prolific young striker like Sesko could be just what Manchester United need to revitalize their attack and challenge for trophies again. His potential arrival would certainly generate excitement among fans after a difficult period for the club.
