Manchester United told to offer £55million for RB Salzburg teenager Benjamin Sesko who is dubbed the ‘new Erling Haaland’

As Cristiano Ronaldo’s future remains uncertain, Manchester United have been looking to strengthen their attack.

Now, the Red Devils have been told the fee required to secure one of Europe’s hottest young prospects – RB Salzburg striker Benjamin Sesko.

Sesko bagged five goals in 24 league appearances last season

Sesko bagged five goals in 24 league appearances last season

Dubbed the ‘new Erling Haaland‘, 19-year-old Slovenia international Sesko is a natural centre-forward and, given he’s 6ft 4in, it’s easy to see why he’s been compared to the new Man City star.

According to The Times, Man United have held talks with the youngster’s representatives.

And it’s understood Salzburg want £55million off the Red Devils – which is far beyond what the Premier League side are prepared to play.

The youngster netted ten times in all competitions last season, his first full campaign as a first team player at Salzburg.

But should Man United try to match the Austrian club’s asking price, they’ll still need to fend off competition from the starlet’s other suitors.

It’s understood money-injected Newcastle are interested, as well as fellow Premier League side Wolves.

Meanwhile, Man United are also struggling to meet Ajax’s asking price for their star winger, and Erik ten Hag’s former player, Antony.

So far this summer, the Red Devils have signed Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia and Christian Eriksen.

Liverpool 1-1 Leicester City: Reds fail to go seven points clear of Manchester City with lacklustre draw

Image
http://bit.ly/2GbpR4P Liverpool missed a golden opportunity to go seven points clear at the top of the Premier League after only managing a 1-1 draw at home to Leicester. Following Manchester City’s defeat at Newcastle last night, the Reds could have put themselves in a commanding position at the summit and got off to the perfect start when Sadio Mane gave Liverpool the lead after just two minutes. But the Reds were lacklustre and let Leicester back in it when Harry Maguire took advantage of some slack defending to equalise just before the break. It means Liverpool are now five points clear of Pep Guardiola’s men but it was not the result Jurgen Klopp’s men were looking for. MORE TO FOLLOW Let's block ads! (Why?)
