It's challenging for clubs without a strong legacy. Newcastle will compete in the Champions League this season, but they have already been outmaneuvered by bigger clubs in the summer transfer window, losing 8 players: Traore to Manchester City, João Pedro and Delap to Chelsea, Ekitike to Liverpool, Kudus to Tottenham, and Cunha, Mbeumo, and Sesko to Manchester United.One can only say that the struggles of Newcastle this summer are evident, having lost 8 players, all to the Premier League big six clubs. This shows that even a diminished Manchester United is larger than the Magpies.
According to the latest reports from Italian transfer experts, Sesko has reached a comprehensive personal agreement with Manchester United, signing for 5 years until 2030. The reason Manchester United could outbid Newcastle is not due to a higher offer, but because Sesko only wishes to join Manchester United; he has never shown interest in other clubs, which can be described as a "Red Devils dream." Negotiations over the transfer fee between Manchester United and Leipzig are still ongoing, with United's previous offer being €75 million plus €10 million in add-ons, while Newcastle's offer was €82.5 million plus €2.5 million in add-ons. Manchester United only needs to match Newcastle's offer to secure Sesko.
Sesko is 22 years old, a right-footed striker standing at 1.95 meters tall, with a market value of €70 million according to Transfermarkt. Last season, he scored 21 goals and provided 6 assists in 45 matches. If Sesko successfully joins Manchester United, they will definitely sell Hojlund.
