Sesko snubs Magpies as fee agreed in Man United move
The Independent
|August 08, 2025
Manchester United have agreed a £66 5m fee with RB Leipzig for Benjamin Sesko.
The Slovenian striker, who could cost up to £73.7m if add-ons are triggered, is set to become Ruben Amorim's third major signing this summer. It takes his spending in the transfer window to more than £200m. But, with Sesko preferring to join Manchester United after Newcastle United also made a bid for him, it represents another blow for Eddie Howe in the Magpies' troubled summer.
Newcastle have also failed in their attempts to sign Hugo Ekitike, who went to Liverpool, Liam Delap and Joao Pedro, who chose Chelsea, and Bryan Mbeumo, who opted for United.
Sesko will join the £71m Mbeumo and the £62.5m buy Matheus Cunha in coach Amorim's remodelled attack as he looks to make United more prolific.
The 22-year-old, who scored 21 goals for RB Leipzig last season, is expected to agree personal terms to move to Old Trafford.
