Two of the Premier League's biggest clubs are preparing for a summer showdown as Manchester United and Chelsea set their sights on RB Leipzig's rising star Benjamin Šeško.
The 20-year-old Slovenian striker has emerged as one of Europe's most exciting young talents, with his performances in the Bundesliga attracting attention from across the continent.
£55m Price Tag for Bundesliga Sensation
Sources suggest Leipzig will demand around £55 million for their prized asset, who only joined the German club last summer from sister side Red Bull Salzburg. Despite being in his debut Bundesliga season, Šeško has shown flashes of brilliance that have scouts buzzing.
Both Manchester United and Chelsea are known to be in the market for attacking reinforcements, with the Red Devils particularly keen to add firepower after a disappointing season in front of goal.
What Šeško Could Bring to the Premier League
- Pace and power that terrifies defenders
- Aerial ability to complement his technical skills
- Proven goalscoring record at youth international level
- Versatility to play across the front line
At 6'4", Šeško offers the physical presence that both English clubs have lacked in recent seasons, while his technical ability makes him a modern forward capable of linking play.
Transfer Battle Heats Up
The competition between Manchester United and Chelsea adds another chapter to their growing transfer rivalry, which has seen them battle for several high-profile targets in recent windows.
With both clubs potentially needing to sell before they can buy this summer, the race for Šeško's signature could come down to which side can move fastest to meet Leipzig's valuation.
As the summer window approaches, all eyes will be on this developing transfer saga that could see one of Europe's brightest young stars make his Premier League debut next season.
