Sasha has shown interest in both Manchester United and Newcastle, slightly leaning towards the Red Devils! The Magpies have made a new bid of £90 million for him.

In the European transfer market, Manchester United and Newcastle United, both in urgent need of a striker, may be toyed with by their 'target' Sasha. The 22-year-old Slovenian forward has reportedly indicated his willingness to join both clubs.

Manchester United has not yet made any official offers, as the club hopes Sasha will clearly state his intention to join only them. Meanwhile, Newcastle has made two bids; after their first offer was rejected, they made a second bid over the weekend and are now negotiating with RB Leipzig regarding the payment structure, potentially agreeing to a deal of at least £70 million (€80 million).

Sasha is Newcastle's top transfer target, so they are determined to expedite the deal, especially after rumors that he informed the Magpies on Monday of his willingness to sign. Reportedly, the Newcastle board hopes to achieve substantial results within the next day, as they need to bring in a new striker before their season opener against Aston Villa next Saturday.

Isak still desires a transfer to Liverpool, but only if Newcastle finds a replacement for the Swedish forward will Liverpool make a new offer. After Liverpool's initial bid of £110 million was rejected, the Swedish striker was forced to return to Newcastle's training ground on Monday.

Manchester United is also interested in Sasha. Last week, there were reports that Old Trafford is his preferred destination, but unlike Newcastle, United has only informed Leipzig of their willingness to make an offer without formally bidding over the weekend.

Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano stated: "Newcastle has made an official bid to RB Leipzig, offering a record transfer fee of €90 million for Sasha. The deal includes €80 million as a fixed transfer fee plus €10 million in add-ons on the table. The player has not yet made a decision. Manchester United has again confirmed to Leipzig that they will make an offer if Sasha chooses them."

Regarding the battle for the player between the Red Devils and the Magpies, sources emphasize that all outcomes are possible. Leipzig has agreed to a gentleman's agreement allowing Sasha to join the club he deems appropriate at a reasonable price. Over the weekend, Leipzig's management met with the player and his agent, Elvis Basanovic, to discuss the next steps. However, as of Monday, there were no concrete signs that Sasha had finalized his next destination. Shockingly, German media outlet Bild even revealed that Sasha told both clubs he only wants to join them!

Now, it is said that all parties are eager to urge the 22-year-old prodigy to make a decision. Newcastle has set a strict deadline, hoping to receive a clear response today, wishing for the player to state his intentions if he does not want to come, so they can shift their focus to other targets.

It is reported that Sasha is not entirely convinced by Newcastle's future development plan; Bild claims he slightly favors choosing Manchester United. However, Manchester United will only make a formal offer if Sasha completely rejects Newcastle and fully commits to the Red Devils' project.

Manchester United's interest in Sasha is driven by their head of recruitment, Christopher Vivell, who previously worked with the player at Red Bull Salzburg and asserts that this forward has the potential to become one of the world's top strikers. Although Amorim prefers to bring in a more experienced forward, he can only accept the arrangements made by the higher-ups.

However, Sasha, who scored 21 goals last season, is not fully convinced by Manchester United either. It is said that he needs the club to provide assurance that the financially constrained Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS can afford his transfer deal.
