After no new move, it seemed like MU had “ignored” striker Benjamin Sesko. However, according to the British press, the Red Devils still silently watched and now, they wanted to buy Sesko after they could not complete the Bryan Mbeumo.
Benjamin Sesko is Arsenal's top target in this summer transfer window. The North London team has pursued the Slovenian striker from the beginning of the summer. However, this deal is considered to go to a dead end.
According to The Independent, RB Leipzig insists on the price of 80 million euros for Sesko. Meanwhile, Arsenal only accepted to pay up to 70 million euros, thereby not finding a common voice.
In addition, Arsenal did not reach personal agreements with Benjamin Sesko. These two factors combined have caused the deal to break. Currently the Gunners are focusing on the Viktor Gyokeres deal.
Good news for Arsenal fans when everything is progressing smoothly. The reason why this deal was unexpectedly “approved” was because Gyokeres representative refused to receive £ 6 million commission to accelerate the progress.
Besides Arsenal, MU is also interested in Sesko. After the time seemed to quit this deal, the Red Devils returned to Sesko to own him soon. According to British media, they are negotiating with the representative of the 22 -year -old striker.
Sesko personally showed an impressive performance in the season before scoring 21 goals after 45 appearances in all competitions. If he arrived at Old Trafford, he could solve the Red Devils' problem, in the context of both strikers Joshua Zirkzee and Rasmus Hojlund did not meet expectations.
Compared to rivals, MU is having difficulty buying rookie. They have just recruited a remarkable name is Matheus Cunha (£ 62.5 million). Meanwhile, the recruitment of Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford has not shown signs of progress because the two parties have not negotiated the transfer fee.
