Sesko, the talented striker from RB Leipzig, seems to have his heart set on joining Manchester United instead of Newcastle this summer. The competition for his signature is heating up, especially since Arsenal has decided to pursue Viktor Gyokeres instead.
Newcastle is going through some uncertain times right now. Alexander Isak, who had an incredible season last year, scoring 23 goals in the Premier League, is now contemplating his future. He appears to have his sights set on a move to Liverpool, the current champions, which has left fans wondering about the direction of the club.

Fans have been feeling pretty anxious lately, and it’s not hard to understand why. The fact that Isak is missing from the squad for the pre-season tour in Asia has only added to the speculation about his future at Newcastle.
Fans are on the edge of their seats, filled with excitement and uncertainty as they wonder if their favorite star striker will remain with the team or seek a new adventure. The atmosphere is thick with anticipation, and you can feel the mix of hope and anxiety among the supporters who are glued to every update and piece of news.
Should Isak make his exit, Sesko has been identified as a suitable replacement, with reports suggesting that Newcastle has had a long-standing interest in the young striker. Initially, Leipzig aimed for a transfer fee between £68 million and £85 million in discussions with Arsenal, but it seems that interest has cooled, and now offers around £60.6 million (€70 million) are being considered feasible.

While Newcastle might feel they have the upper hand in securing Sesko due to the allure of Champions League football next season—something Manchester United can’t currently flaunt—the situation appears to be more favorable for United. According to German journalist Guido Schäfer, Sesko has already indicated that he prefers a move to Old Trafford over St James’ Park. This twist adds an intriguing layer to the summer transfer saga!
