Manchester United may face competition from Bayern Munich for the acquisition of one of the most talented strikers in the Bundesliga, according to Christian Falk, a journalist for Bild.
This campaign, the Red Devils have been underwhelming in terms of front of goal. They have scored only nine goals in their first 10 Premier League encounters.
Rasmus Hojlund has scored only twice in his ten appearances, while Joshua Zirkzee, who was signed in the summer, has scored one goal in his fourteen appearances.
Falk has recently disclosed that Bayern is currently in pursuit of a new striker to serve as a backup to Harry Kane. Sesko is among the potential candidates.
The Red Devils are anticipated to pose a challenge to the German titans, according to the esteemed journalist.
The transfer of Sesko may be contingent upon Amorim’s posture.
At present, United is not actively seeking to acquire an additional striker; however, the situation may evolve in the upcoming summer contingent upon the results of this season.
Zirkzee appears to be the most probable candidate for sale of the two. It has been asserted that Ruben Amorim has already made the decision to separate ways with him.
In that scenario, INEOS could potentially facilitate the acquisition of a high-profile striker; however, the primary concern is whether the new manager would favor Sesko.
Since joining Leipzig from Red Bull Salzburg last year, the £67 million sensation has scored 25 goals.
The Slovenian has a substantial reputation and has the potential to improve with age. Before Euro 2024, BBC Sport described him as “one of the best in the world.”
Nevertheless, Amorim may favor a seasoned and well-known alternative in Gyokeres, who could be available for a fee of approximately £63 million next summer.
Amorim may favor a reconciliation with the 26-year-old Swede, who has been exceptional for Sporting over the past 18 months, scoring 63 goals in 66 appearances.
