Striker Benjamin Sesko seems to have chosen MU instead of Newcastle United. His appearance at Old Trafford can have a great impact on the following 4 names.
Prestigious sources in the UK confirmed that the striker born in 2003 will join MU. If there is no big event, Sesko will become the first Slovenian player to play for MU. The price for the Old Trafford team to complete the “blockbuster” deal is about 80 million euros. Sesko is expected to stick with the Red Devils for 5 years.
The appearance of Sesko is expected to help MU play better and have “output” for more goals than what the club has shown last season. Besides, when Sesko comes to Old Trafford, many players will also have to change their roles under the guidance of coach Ruben Amorim. So what 4 names will be affected by Sesko's presence?
Rasmus hojlund
After two seasons of disappointment, when Hojlund always struggled to score with the more and more confidence, the rumors of the Danish striker were sold in most summer so far.
The appearance of Sesko will significantly increase the possibility of that, when Man United is willing to accept selling losses for only half the amount of £ 72 million they have paid to Atalanta to have Hojlund in the summer of 2023.
Some Serie A teams have contacted to buy but no official offer has been made. Hojlund himself has no intention of leaving. He was determined to change his destiny and did not flinch at the rumors of the transfer related to me in the past: “I think my plan is very clear and that I will stay and fight for my position, whatever happens.”
Joshua zirkzee
The injury issues that made Zirkzee play very well in the MU in the second half of the season 2024/25 to sit on the long term. However, Zirkzee's play is completely different from Hojlund. He has a speed, read good situations, pulls the ball well … and that will bring another attack for Amorim when he needs to change.
Be likely, Zirkzee will be tried right behind Sesko. That will help him play freely, connect better with surrounding satellites as well as reduce the pressure load for Bruno Fernandes himself.
Mathheus Cunha
The Brazilian star has promoted the ability to create and score when he was arranged on the left wing at the old Wolves Club. The fact that Sesko is a member of the center of the trio of attack will certainly maximize the potential of Cunha. He has impressed Jorgen Strand Larsen – who is ranked striker at Molineux in the past and Amorim expected CunHa and Sesko to have good coordination.
Bryan Mbeumo
Mbeumo is similar to Cunha. The most difference is that he can switch the position from the wing, into the center of Wissam when he was still in Brentford. This right -wing player shows how flexibility that he can bring is so great. While playing for “bees”, Mbeumo moved continuously, creating many gaps, stretching the opponent's defense and at the same time putting pressure on them by moving in, thereby creating conditions for the ironing defenders to rise. This will be a “trick” that Amorim will definitely use a lot in the near future. The level of damage is expected to be even higher when the Red Devils possess a good center of dispute, play good football and make walls as well as Sesko.
