The forward will continue his career in the Premier League at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils secured another big transfer this summer as they bought Benjamin Sesko from the Bulls for 73.7 million pounds.

The Slovenian striker inked a 5-year deal as the EPL giants will pay 66.3 million pounds to RB Leipzig, with the remaining sum in different bonuses.

Sesko became Man United’s 3rd significant new addition in attack after they already bought Matheus Cunha from Wolves and Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford, as the duo cost almost 130 million pounds.

Benjamin was also wanted by Newcastle as the Magpies even made a higher bid to his German club, but the Slovenian preferred to continue his career at Old Trafford.

“We all know the history of Man United, but I’m more excited about the future of the team,” started Sesko.

“When we talked about the project, I swiftly understood that everything works here for the club to continue to grow and soon be among the best teams in the world again,” shared the Slovenian forward.

Benjamin also added that he can’t wait to work with Amorim and to meet his new teammates and prepare to achieve great things with the Red Devils.
