Football Transfer Gossip: Sesko too Manchester United, Isak’s Future, and More

Farewell, Benjamin Sesko. The slovenian striker has been the subject of much speculation but is now finalizing a move to Manchester United, a club with a strong track record of developing forwards. What does this mean for Newcastle, who were also interested and are in desperate need of attacking reinforcements? They continue to be linked with Chelsea’s Nicolas jackson and Brentford’s Yoane Wissa, while the daily Mail reports that Wolves’ Jørgen Strand Larsen is also under consideration.

Uncertainty surrounds the future of Newcastle’s Alexander Isak, though the Times claims Liverpool remain interested – even after having a £110m offer rejected. With Sesko set to lead the line at Old Trafford, the future of Rasmus Højlund is in doubt; a return to Serie A with Milan is a possibility. Chelsea are reportedly continuing their trend of acquiring players from Manchester United: Jadon Sancho joined on loan last year, and now Alejandro Garnacho is a target, with a reported price tag of £50m.
