Manchester United is in negotiations to secure RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko's transfer. Sesko has chosen Manchester United over Newcastle United. The deal is advancing, with Sesko officially informing both Newcastle and Leipzig of his decision. Personal terms are expected to be easily agreed upon. Manchester United hopes to complete the transfer by Saturday, ideally in time for Sesko's introduction at a match against Fiorentina. Ruben Amorim is reportedly pleased with adding Sesko to his evolving team structure for the upcoming season.
This deal is now accelerating - Sesko informed Newcastle and Leipzig officially on Tuesday that he would be joining Manchester United.
Personal terms were never going to be an issue, and broad agreement is in place for those.
I am told that United would love to get the deal over the line by Saturday to have him presented to the crowd against Fiorentina.
One thing I am told is that Ruben Amorim, internally, is delighted to be getting his new number 9 - this team is now becoming an Amorim XI.
