Manchester United Close to Signing RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko in Transfer Race

On August 6, 2025, Manchester United became the leading candidate to sign 22-year-old Slovenian striker Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig, surpassing Newcastle United in a competitive transfer race.

According to David Ornstein from The Athletic, Manchester United made an offer of €75 million plus €10 million in add-ons after Newcastle submitted bids of €75 million plus €5 million and a revised offer of €80 million. Although Newcastle’s higher offer and appeal of the Champions League position were strong factors, Sesko’s clear preference for Manchester United has swayed the negotiations in their favour, as confirmed by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

Sesko, who joined Leipzig from RB Salzburg in 2023, has scored 39 goals and provided eight assists in 87 appearances, with 21 goals in the 2024-25 season alone. Standing at 6ft 5in, his physicality, speed, and powerful finishing draw comparisons to Erling Haaland, though he’s still developing. His attributes make him a strong fit for the Premier League’s demands, but adapting to Manchester United’s intense scrutiny will be a key challenge for the young forward.

🚨💣 Benjamin Šeško has reached total agreement with Manchester United on personal terms. Contract until June 2030.

While no final agreement has been reached, talks with Leipzig are progressing to meet the club’s valuation expectations. United’s pursuit of Sesko is part of a broader offensive overhaul, following the signings of Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers and Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford this summer. The club also explored a move for Liam Delap, who opted for Chelsea. Sesko’s addition aims to bolster United’s attacking options for a competitive season across multiple fronts.

Sesko’s decision to favour United over Newcastle highlights his ambition to join a historic club, but the pressure of performing at Old Trafford will test his resilience. His physical style could complement United’s evolving squad, yet the transition to the Premier League’s pace and expectations remains a hurdle. Fans and analysts are optimistic about his potential to become a key figure in United’s resurgence.
