Manchester United enquired this summer about the possibility of a “completely unique” striker signing, according to a new claim from Sky Sports journalist Flori Amplettenberg.
Man Utd is still looking for a new striker
This was a good summer transfer window for United so far, with Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo likely to be strong signatures from Wolves and Brentford respectively.
But United will have to desperately sign the elite striker, but Rasmus Hojlund is still not enough to suggest that he is the answer to lead the line of Reuben Amorim in the coming years.
RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesco looks like the current frontrunner coming this summer.
While some reports suggest that Magpies won the race signing to Sesco, another update claims that football director Jason Wilcox is confident he will take his man to United. Currently, another huge player is mentioned as an alternative option.
According to Sky Germany‘s plettenberg on xManchester United recently asked about Newcastle striker Alexander Isaac, amid strong interest from Liverpool.
In reality, it appears unlikely that United would sign Isaac. Liverpool is an obvious favourite to acquire him, and the player himself refuses the chance to move to Anfield and Old Trafford.
That being said, if the Red Devils were able to suddenly sign a £120,000 star deal, it would be a game-changing business, and journalist Matthew Kechel might be shining about him.
“He has a genuine, simple, unique style about his play. It’s the way he moves, it’s completely unique. The balance he has, the speed he has, the strength he has, the intelligence, it’s there.
Assuming United missed Isaac, it must be a case of signing Sesco instead. The Leipzig star could be a huge hit at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils don’t have Champions League football to offer him, but they offer European football on that, but Newcastle will play in the top club competition next season.
Hopefully, United’s lures will ultimately prove that Sesco is too big for him to refuse, but missing him is a big blow, forcing the club to see an alternative.
