The secret to Sesko's breakthrough.

From a contract that came under considerable pressure due to its high transfer fee, the Slovenian striker is showing that he possesses the foundation to become a long-term main center forward for the Manchester team.

Perfectionism

Before leaving his position as Manchester United's head coach, Ruben Amorim once called Sesko a "control freak," implying that the Slovenian striker was meticulous down to the smallest detail. At the time, Coach Amorim believed that the 22-year-old striker would succeed at Old Trafford, and recent signs suggest that assessment was correct.

At Carrington, Sesko was described as one of the hardest-working players. He not only trained intensely but also paid special attention to tactical analysis. The striker frequently used virtual reality glasses to simulate match situations, improving his ability to scan the space and identify pressure from opponents.

In addition, Sesko's lifestyle is also scientifically structured. He regularly uses a sauna and red light therapy to recover his physical strength, practices meditation, works with a sports psychologist, and hires a private chef to collaborate with the club's nutrition department.

Michael Carrick, Manchester United's interim manager, confirmed: "Benjamin is training very hard. He's in good shape and ready to break through."

The Sun believes that Sesko's seriousness will pave the way for his development at Old Trafford. When he played for Salzburg and RB Leipzig, he also needed time to adapt before he exploded onto the scene. Manchester United understands that this is a long-term project, not an instant success.

MU's future number 9

The fee of over £73 million meant Sesko carried considerable expectations. However, Sesko gradually repaid that trust with positive performances. In his first six months, he had a streak of 5 goals in 6 matches.

Despite often coming on as a substitute, Sesko still knows how to make a difference. His quick finishing and technical skills are reminiscent of his idol Zlatan Ibrahimovic, although Sesko's playing style is calmer and more humble than his Swedish predecessor.

A member of Manchester United described Sesko as a "team player," someone who earned the respect of his teammates through effort and performances on the pitch rather than words.

Manchester United's management views Sesko as a strategic investment. Director of Football Jason Wilcox once called him one of the best young talents in the world , with the potential to reach top-level status.

After failing to sign Rasmus Hojlund, and being unable to persuade Erling Haaland to join them in the past, the "Red Devils" want to place their full trust in a striker with great potential like Sesko.

The two decisive goals against Fulham and West Ham recently showed that Sesko has not only improved his finishing skills but also matured mentally. More importantly, he maintains a professional attitude after each match, completing his warm-up and recovery sessions to prepare for the next game.

At 22 years old, Sesko still has plenty of time to develop. If he continues to maintain his perfectionism and learning spirit, the Slovenian striker could absolutely become the "number 9" that MU has been searching for for many years.
