Man Utd agree €85m deal to sign Benjamin Sesko

Manchester United have reached an agreement to sign RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, according to journalist David Ornstein.

The Red Devils have been determined to land a new marksman and they have eventually secured the services of Sesko from Leipzig.

The Slovenian agreed personal terms over a transfer earlier this week and the club have now finalised a deal worth €85 million for his services.

Sesko has already travelled to Manchester for his medical tests, and United plan to unveil him as a new arrival during Saturday's friendly.

The Red Devils are scheduled to host Fiorentina at Old Trafford. It is highly unlikely that Sesko will be involved without any team training.

United boss Ruben Amorim will be aiming to integrate Sesko into the squad next week ahead of the Premier League opener against Arsenal.

The Gunners have also signed a marquee striker in Viktor Gyokeres and it promises to be an entertaining affair on the 17th of August.
