Manchester United are reportedly setting their sights on RB Leipzig's rising star Benjamin Sesko, as they seek a long-term solution to their attacking woes. The Slovenian striker, often likened to Erling Haaland, has emerged as a prime target for the Red Devils.
The Next Haaland?
At just 20 years old, Sesko has already drawn comparisons to Manchester City's goal machine Erling Haaland. Standing at an imposing 6'4", the young forward possesses a similar physical presence and eye for goal that made Haaland a household name.
United's Striker Search Continues
With Anthony Martial's future uncertain and Rasmus Hojlund still adapting to Premier League football, United are keen to bolster their attacking options. Sesko's impressive form in the Bundesliga has put him firmly on Erik ten Hag's radar.
What Sesko Brings to the Table
- Prolific goalscoring record at youth and senior levels
- Exceptional aerial ability
- Impressive technical skills for his size
- Proven track record in European competitions
The Slovenian international joined RB Leipzig from Red Bull Salzburg last summer and has already shown he can perform at the highest level. His 11 goals in his debut Bundesliga season have turned heads across Europe.
Transfer Battle Looms
United aren't the only club monitoring Sesko's progress. Several top European sides are reportedly keeping tabs on the young striker, which could drive his price tag upwards of £50 million. However, United's need for a proven goalscorer might make them willing to meet Leipzig's demands.
With the summer transfer window approaching, all eyes will be on whether United can secure what many believe could be the next great striker in world football.
