Man Utd Set To Rival Tottenham For Premier League Proven Striker After Missing Out On Sesko

Benjamin Sesko has reportedly decided to remain at RB Leipzig, seemingly ending hopes of a potential move to Manchester United.

United, along with fellow Premier League sides Arsenal and Chelsea, had been linked with signing the Slovenian striker this summer after his impressive debut campaign in Germany.

Sesko scored a total of 18 goals in 42 appearances during his first season with Leipzig, ensuring he has quickly become a player in demand during the transfer window.

But it seems the Red Devils will have to turn their attention elsewhere following a latest update on the player from Italian journalist, Fabrizio Romano. It is claimed the 21-year-old has “decided to stay” at his current club and is expected to sign a new contract in the coming days.

Manchester United to rival Tottenham hotspurs for Ollie Watkins

Ollie Watkins has already pointed out who his dream club would be as Manchester United look to launch a dramatic swoop in for the 28-year-old this summer.

Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins has already pointed out who his dream club would be as Manchester United look to launch a dramatic swoop in for the 28-year-old this summer.

The Red Devils are hoping they can convince the star to jump to Old Trafford despite what has been an incredibly successful season for him at Villa Park, having netted 27 goals in all competitions this season which has been vital to helping them qualify for the Champions League.

It’s set to be a busy summer of business for the club, who are ready to entertain offers for every player in their squad save for just four first team players, with Andre Onana, Kobbie Mainoo, Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund all on contracts that will run out in 2028.

But now, according to talkSPORT, the British billionaire has his eyes set on helping the progression of Hojlund by signing England international Watkins, despite the challenge of his new five-year contract which he signed just last year. Whether Watkins would want to join United as they enter such a heavy rebuild phase is unclear.
