Manchester United Eyes Sesko, Hojlund Could Facilitate Leipzig Deal
Manchester United wants to buy Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig.
They might offer their player Rasmus Hojlund in exchange, plus some money.
Sesko likes the idea of playing for Manchester United even though he could play in the Champions League with Newcastle.
Hojlund had a tough season with Manchester United, but RB Leipzig sees value in him.
Roma is also interested in Hojlund, as their coach previously worked with him and sees him as a potential replacement for their current striker.
Manchester United is reportedly pursuing RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko.
RB Leipzig may consider selling Sesko if Manchester United includes Rasmus Hojlund in the deal.
Sesko reportedly prefers Manchester United over Newcastle United, despite Newcastle's Champions League offer.
Hojlund scored 10 goals in 30 Premier League matches during his debut season, and 4 goals in the 2024-25 season.
AS Roma and coach Gian Piero Gasperini are considering a reunion with Hojlund.
