Man Utd is about to have a new "killer", Sesko trains separately before leaving Leipzig

Benjamin Sesko chooses Man Utd, rejects Newcastle to prepare to join Old Trafford

The race to sign striker Benjamin Sesko is nearing its conclusion, with the advantage tilted towards Manchester United. Although Newcastle had made a competitive offer, the RB Leipzig striker is said to have chosen to play for the "Red Devils".

Five-year deal set to take total spending to £200m

According to many sources, Sesko is preparing to sign a 5-year contract with Manchester United. If the deal is completed, the amount of money "Red Devils" spent in the summer transfer window this year could reach 200 million pounds.

The Slovenian striker is expected to add strength to the attack, combining with names such as Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo. Under coach Ruben Amorim, Man Utd are in the process of rebuilding after a disappointing season, finishing in 15th place.

Leipzig confirms Sesko is training separately, waiting for the day to say goodbye

RB Leipzig released a statement on Wednesday morning, confirming that Sesko was training separately from the first team. In addition to him, Lukas Klostermann also did not train with his teammates. This is seen as a move to prepare for the transfer that is very close.

Sesko had previously told his teammates that he would leave the club this summer in search of a new challenge.

Man Utd need to sell players to balance the force

Although they are about to have quality new recruits, Man Utd still faces a personnel problem when many players are no longer in the plan.

The trio of Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho and Antony are all looking to leave Old Trafford, possibly bringing in a significant budget for further deals.
