Reporter: Inex approved the signing of Cesco, Manchester United expects this transfer to be completed

Recently, several media reported that Manchester United wanted to sign Leipzig striker Sesco. According to reporter Christopher Michel, Ineos has now approved the transfer.

According to previous news from Romano, Manchester United has notified RB Leipzig that they plan to give Cesco a offer. Although Newcastle is also interested in the striker, the report said that Manchester United is still confident in negotiations with Sesco and Leipzig, and internally believes that the transfer will be in place.

Manchester United has already included Sesco on the list of attention and has conducted many on-site inspections, and its contact with the player team has never been interrupted. The report said that Manchester United owner Ineos has given the green light for the deal.

After spending 150 million euros to sign Cunha, Leon and Mbemo this summer, Manchester United is now allowed to introduce another center: head coach Amorin still lacks such a puzzle in his 3-4-3 tactical system, and Sesco can bring flexibility, technology and impact.

If the coaching staff can further improve Sesco's performance ability in one-on-one situation in front of the opponent's goal, then he has the potential to become a top striker in the Premier League: he played in 87 official games for Leipzig and scored 39 goals and contributed 8 assists, which is a strong argument, but he still has room for improvement in stability and calmness in the goal.

For Leipzig, Sesco's departure will be a huge competitive loss. However, they have invested more than 90 million euros to sign up this summer, but have only earned 6 million euros. The new season is Leipzig's first European match since it entered the Bundesliga in 2016. For this reason, they need income to balance the accounts, and the transfer fee price of Sesco should be between 70 million and 80 million euros.

It is not yet clear whether Manchester United will continue to be active in the transfer market after the trade in Cesco. Ineos has only approved funding for a striker or a midfielder, and Manchester United's ultimate decision is to bring in a striker.

And if you want to make more transfers, Manchester United needs to sell players. Anthony, Garnacho or Sancho are widely considered as candidates for sale that may bring in budget space.

A special example is Hoylen: he joined in 2023 with a transfer fee of nearly 80 million euros and showed strength in the UEFA Cup (scoring 6 goals and sending 3 assists), but he scored only 4 goals in the Premier League but failed to meet expectations. The striker hopes to stay, but if Sesco does join, it's not sure if he will change his mind at this time.
