Sesko case spins like a top

According to Mail Sport , both Man United and Newcastle have approached Sesko and his agent Elvis Basanovic in recent days. Newcastle have been quicker to act, having submitted a bid of nearly £70m to RB Leipzig - including £65.5m up front. However, this proposal is expected to be rejected.

Man United are more cautious. The “Red Devils” have not made an official offer, but have had personal negotiations with the player. Leipzig are also said to be willing to let Sesko go if they receive a reasonable transfer package from a club that is considered “at the right level”.

Man United have the advantage, but still cautious

It is worth mentioning that, according to the German newspaper BILD, Sesko has told both clubs that he wants to join them. This kind of "two-timing" makes the deal more dramatic. With the Premier League just over a week away from kicking off, both clubs are putting pressure on Sesko to make a quick decision.

Man United is currently the destination that Sesko is "leaning slightly". BILD said that the 22-year-old striker is impressed with the rebuilding project of coach Ruben Amorim - who has made him the number one target for the striker position next season.

Recruitment director Christopher Vivell - who worked with Sesko at RB Salzburg - was instrumental in the deal. Vivell believes the 1.94m striker has the potential to become one of the world's top strikers.

However, to convince Leipzig and the player himself, Man United will need more than promises. The big question is: do the club have the financial resources to meet the £70m price tag, having already recruited Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Diego Leon?

According to Mail Sport , both Man United and Newcastle have approached Sesko and his agent Elvis Basanovic in recent days.

As for Newcastle, the North East English team is very impatient. They not only made a specific offer but also set a deadline for Sesko within 24 hours. If there is no clear response, the "Magpies" may turn to other targets, with Goncalo Ramos (PSG) on the list.

The reason Newcastle are so determined is because of the future of Alexander Isak. The Swedish striker is said to have expressed his desire to join Liverpool, in the context that the "Red Brigade" is ready to spend over 100 million pounds to bring him to Anfield.

Although their first bid was rejected, Newcastle knew they could only let Isak go if they found a replacement in time, and Sesko was the most likely candidate. However, according to sources, the 22-year-old is still not completely convinced by the project at St. James' Park.

It's not about money anymore, it's about direction.

Last season, Benjamin Sesko scored 21 goals for Leipzig in all competitions. He also scored 16 goals in 41 appearances for Slovenia.

With an ideal physique, aerial ability and cool finishing, Sesko is considered one of the most potential young strikers in Europe. That is the reason why both English giants spared no expense to win his signature.

However, this deal is moving away from purely financial factors. For Sesko, choosing a destination is not simply about salary or contract value, but about believing in the sporting project and the central role in the coach's plans.

Ruben Amorim, with his direct football philosophy, tight control and always putting faith in young players, seems to have the upper hand in the eyes of the Slovenian striker.

For Sesko, he is caught between two options: a Newcastle side that is aggressive, has the budget, but lacks the reputation and guarantees of success; and a United side that is rebuilding strongly, is ambitious, but is unlikely to have the cash available to meet Leipzig immediately.

Both are intriguing - and both are... risky. But one thing is certain: Sesko's decision will have a domino effect on the Premier League transfer market. And in a race this tight, one step behind could mean losing everything.
