Manchester United are intensifying their efforts to sign Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig, as they look to bolster their attacking options ahead of the new season.

Benjamin Sesko has netted an impressive 39 goals for the German club, and Manchester United are accelerating negotiations in hopes of securing a deal in the summer transfer window. According to a report by TEAMtalk, the Red Devils are eager to bring in the RB Leipzig striker, who stands at 6’5″ tall and has demonstrated his qualities in Germany.

The clu Red Devils believe he has the qualities required to thrive in the Premier League as well. Benjamin Sesko is seen as a potentially exceptional acquisition, especially with current forwards Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee failing to live up to expectations. Manchester United are in dire need of a consistent goalscorer — someone capable of finding the back of the net on a regular basis.

The 22-year-old Slovenian could be the transformative figure Manchester United need in the final third. A move to England would likely appeal to him, as it offers increased exposure and the chance to fulfil his world-class potential. While the transfer fee is expected to be substantial, Manchester United possess the financial muscle to complete the deal, and the player may ultimately justify the investment.

Manchester United need quality to bounce back

For a club of Manchester United’s stature, recent seasons without challenging for the Premier League or Champions League titles are simply unacceptable. Signing elite talents like Benjamin Sesko is crucial if they hope to compete for major honours again. With a solid squad and a proven manager, a couple of smart additions this summer could set them back on the path to success.

It remains to be seen if Manchester United can reach an agreement with the Bundesliga club. The player may feel he has already proven himself in Germany and that now is the ideal time to take the next step. A move to Old Trafford would be difficult for him to reject, and he will be hoping that both clubs can finalise terms in the coming weeks. The player has been linked with clubs like Arsenal and Liverpool as well.
