Manchester United transfer U-Turn is already paying off

GREATER MANCHESTER, ENGLAND, JUL 21 – Manchester United is prioritizing striker Benjamin Sesko, who scored 21 goals last season, with a potential transfer dependent on player sales and financial conditions, sources say.

  • On July 22, 2025, Manchester United initiated internal talks, after Football Insider claims United have 'turned their attention to' Sesko, and for now, discussions are underway per Fabrizio Romano.
  • United need a new striker, and signing one hinges on how much money they can generate from player sales like Antony, Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho, and Tyrell Malacia.
