Manchester United confident of beating Newcastle to Benjamin Sesko signing
Briefly

Manchester United are making significant progress in signing Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig, primarily due to Sesko's preference for the club despite Newcastle's offer of Champions League football. Manchester United's package includes 65.4 million upfront with potential add-ons, bringing the total to about 74.1 million. Sesko had a productive season with 13 goals in Bundesliga and four in the Champions League. This deal would increase United's summer transfer spending to around 214 million. Current United players like Rashford are seeking exits, with others not part of pre-season plans.
