Man United Ramp Up Bid to Hijack Newcastle’s Benjamin Sesko Deal as Striker Gives Green Light to Both Clubs

Man United have accelerated their pursuit of RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko in a bold attempt to hijack Newcastle's transfer plans, with the player saying yes to both projects.

The 22-year-old is increasingly like to head to the Premier League this summer with Newcastle and Man United fighting to secure his services.

According to German outlet Bild, Sesko would be happy to join either club and has given the greenlight to both of them as talks continue.

Newcastle had a €75 million plus €5m offer rejected by RB Leipzig, who are holding out for €80m guaranteed.

Ruben Amorim’s side are now in club-to-club talks with RB Leipzig over a move for the striker, although they are yet to make an official bid.
