Latest Developments on the Sesko Transfer
The rivalry between Manchester United and Newcastle over Benjamin Sesko has taken an unforeseen turn.
In recent weeks, both clubs have been actively vying for the 22-year-old Slovenian forward.
According to a report from German publication Bild, Sesko has informed both teams that he is only contemplating offers from them.
In a meeting on Sunday, Sesko expressed to his agent his desire to join either Manchester United or Newcastle if he departs RB Leipzig this summer.
This conversation followed his omission from Leipzig’s lineup for their friendly against Atalanta.
Newcastle made a record offer of £69.8 million, including add-ons, on Saturday, which Leipzig rejected as they are now seeking £70 million guaranteed.
The total amount is expected to surpass £70 million once add-ons are factored in.
