Man Utd chief John Murtough ‘meets’ Benjamin Sesko agent with two attacking transfers eyed
Manchester United have accelerated their pursuit of Red Bull Salzburg striker Benjamin Sesko, with football director John Murtough holding talks with the 19-year-old’s agent. Erik ten Hag is eyeing attacking reinforcements ahead of his maiden season as manager, and United are stepping up the search.
According to the Manchester Evening News, Murtough met with Sesko’s agent, Elvis Basanovic, last Wednesday to inquire about a potential transfer. The Slovenia international has been on United’s shortlist this summer and could soon be the subject of a concrete approach.
Sesko ignited hype earlier this week with a sensational pre-season performance against Liverpool, netting the winner in a 1-0 victory for RB Salzburg. And Basanovic is now herding interest across Europe, with United firmly among clubs pursuing his signature.
