Manchester United and Newcastle United are reportedly going head-to-head in a high-stakes pursuit of RB Leipzig's prolific striker Benjamin Šeško. The 20-year-old Slovenian international has emerged as one of Europe's most exciting young talents, attracting attention from top clubs across the continent.
The Šeško Sweepstakes
Šeško's impressive performances in the Bundesliga and Champions League have put him firmly on the radar of Premier League clubs. With 18 goals in all competitions last season, the young forward has demonstrated both clinical finishing and intelligent movement that would suit English football.
Why Both Clubs Want Him
Manchester United see Šeško as a long-term solution to their striker problems, while Newcastle United view him as the perfect addition to their ambitious project under Eddie Howe. Both clubs are prepared to meet RB Leipzig's £55 million valuation, setting up a potential summer transfer saga.
What Makes Šeško Special

- Excellent hold-up play and aerial dominance
- Proven goalscorer at club and international level
- Massive potential for further development
With the summer transfer window heating up, this battle between two of England's biggest clubs could become one of the most intriguing storylines of the offseason.
