Man Utd ‘considering Sasa Kalajdzic AND Benjamin Sesko transfers with Cristiano Ronaldo still forcing Old Trafford exit’
Posted Monday, August 01, 2022 by Thesun.co.uk
MANCHESTER UNITED are reportedly considering Sasa Kalajdzic AND Benjamin Sesko to solve their Cristiano Ronaldo dilemma.
The Mail claims the duo have been earmarked by Erik ten Hag after he deemed a swoop for Ajax’s Antony too pricey.
The Dutchman’s former side want £80million to sell their Brazilian forward.
And United know they must move quickly for reinforcements as major doubts remain over Ronaldo’s future.
The Portuguese veteran is desperate for a way out this summer, despite returning to training and playing a half in a friendly against Rayo Vallecano on Sunday.
And it’s now said that Stuttgart striker Kalajdzic has forced his way into Ten Hag’s thoughts.
The Austria international, 25, scored six goals last season after suffering a long-term injury.
But before that, he netted 16 times in the Bundesliga.
And at 6ft 6in, Kalajdzic could be just the right type of striker to lead United’s line.
He attracted interest from Chelsea and Tottenham last month.
And Stuttgart reportedly value him at just £17million.
However, United still remain keen on long-term target Sesko.
The £55m-rated RB Salzburg forward starred in a win over Liverpool the other day.
And he is also appreciated by Spurs boss Antonio Conte.
But Salzburg are not interested in selling Sesko this summer.
And they cheekily quoted United £1BILLION plus Bruno Fernandes and even mascot Fred the Red in a social media post.
