It is summer of all folies at Manchester United, or perhaps summer of reconstruction. After a calamitous season in all respects, which will prevent him from playing a European competition this season, the Mancunian club is in the midst of the face of its workforce. Marcus Rashford joined Barça in the form of a loan, while Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho or Antony, all have an outing voucher. For his first full season in Manchester United, Ruben Amorim will be able to count on Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, two players referenced in the Premier League and bought 74 and 75 million euros respectively from Wolverhampton and Brentford.
This recruitment in the domestic championship reflects a certain change in the club's recruitment policy, now anxious to be able to count on elements immediately ready. At the number 9 post, Watkins, Nicolas Jackson or even Alexander Isak have all been identified as profiles likely to strengthen the workforce. But the position of their English counterparts, inflexible, or their fixed, prohibitive prices have prompted Manchester United to turn abroad. This is where the opportunity Benjamin Sesko sounded obvious.
Over 220 million euros in spending this summer
Ardently courted by Newcastle who wanted to make him the designated successor of Alexander Isak, the Slovenian striker finally decided in favor of the Red Devils, who spent 76.5 million euros, plus 8.5, to attach his services. The 22 -year -old signed a contract until 2030. “Manchester United is happy to confirm that Benjamin Sesko joined the club, subject to registration. The international Slovenian has signed a contract until June 2030. In the past two seasons, Sesko is the most prolific player of the five major European championships ”said the Manchester United press release.
Author of 13 goals and 5 assists in 33 Bundesliga games last year with Leipzig, Sesko was one of the most courted numbers on the continent. Mobile, technically end, rather swift despite its 95 meter, the Slovenian responds to the specifications of the modern attacker. Qualities which therefore convinced Manchester United to increase the score of its transfer window to more than 220 million euros this summer.
