The Red Devils, under manager Ruben Amorim, are looking to reinforce their attacking options, and Sesko fits the profile of a long-term solution: tall, quick, and clinical in front of goal. If club negotiations progress smoothly, Sesko could soon become United’s next marquee signing of the summer.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Slovenian striker Benjamin Sesko has reached a full agreement on personal terms with Manchester United, moving a step closer to becoming the club’s next major signing. The agreed contract would keep Sesko at Old Trafford until June 2030.

Romano reports that Sesko is fully committed to joining United, with a "clear feeling" communicated internally since yesterday. The RB Leipzig forward has not given similar signals to any other clubs, underlining his desire to make the move to the Premier League giants.

While personal terms are now settled, club-to-club talks between Manchester United and RB Leipzig are ongoing. Leipzig are currently negotiating the fee and structure of the deal, with the Bundesliga side expected to push for a strong valuation given Sesko’s potential and recent form.

Sesko, 22, has been one of Europe’s most sought-after young forwards. After a strong season with Leipzig, his profile has grown rapidly, with clubs across Europe showing interest. But as Romano confirms, Manchester United have always been his priority.

He was widely respected as a tough, disciplined central defender and was also capped 50 times for the Portuguese national team.
