**BREAKING: Benjamin Sesko reveals the Man United star who inspired his move – deal now imminent**
Benjamin Sesko has officially set his sights on Manchester United, and the transfer is all but confirmed. A full agreement has now been reached between Manchester United and RB Leipzig, paving the way for the 22-year-old striker to become the latest addition in what has been an ambitious and exciting summer rebuild at Old Trafford.
Sesko didn’t hold back when asked what influenced his decision to join United. “It was actually because of him that I gave up my salary to join this great club. My partnership with him now will be unstoppable,” he revealed, pointing to a key United player who inspired his move. While the name wasn’t mentioned in this quote, the message is loud and clear — Sesko is not only ready to join, but also to form a lethal attacking bond with one of United’s current stars.
This deal is the final piece in a summer attacking transformation led by manager Ruben Amorim and the Manchester United board. With Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha already signed — both proven in the Premier League — the addition of Sesko now completes what many are calling a formidable forward line.
Although Newcastle United had shown strong interest in Sesko, Manchester United swiftly gained the upper hand. The Slovenian international had already made up his mind earlier in the week, making the rest of the process feel like a formality. Talks between United and RB Leipzig progressed smoothly, resulting in an agreed fee of £66.3 million plus add-ons of £7.3 million.
Rather than wait to finalize the deal, Sesko immediately boarded a private jet to Manchester. Images shared by Fabrizio Romano showed a beaming Sesko alongside his agent, Elvis Basanovic, en route to Manchester Airport. The excitement on Sesko’s face said it all — this is a dream move coming true.
According to Romano, Sesko is expected to sign his Manchester United contract on Friday. The official unveiling is scheduled to take place in front of fans at Old Trafford on Saturday, just before United face Fiorentina in a friendly.
Interestingly, part of the transfer agreement includes a friendly match between Manchester United and RB Leipzig — a nice touch symbolizing the smooth relationship between both clubs throughout the negotiation.
With everything now falling into place, Manchester United are just hours away from welcoming one of Europe’s most exciting young talents.
