The race for Slovenian striker Benjamin Šeško is intensifying, with Newcastle United now ready to meet the full transfer fee for the highly-rated RB Leipzig forward.
Sources close to the deal confirm that Newcastle have officially made their move, presenting a detailed project to convince the player. However, just as the Magpies were closing in, Manchester United entered the frame making contact to inquire about the deal’s conditions after receiving an internal green light.
With both Premier League clubs now firmly in the race, Šeško has become the subject of a brewing tug-of-war, with interest mounting across Europe. The 21-year-old is reportedly weighing his options carefully, with a final decision expected soon.
Šeško’s next move could have major implications for the summer transfer window, as he remains one of the most sought-after young strikers in Europe.
