MU regrets in Sesko case. |
According to Slovenian press sources, the former Liverpool coach and current Global Football Director of Red Bull, spent time talking to Sesko, wanting him to move to "The Magpies" instead of Manchester United.
Delo , one of Slovenia's biggest sports newspapers, revealed that Klopp feared the playing environment at Old Trafford could ruin Sesko's career. Klopp's advice then had a big influence on Sesko's decision, leading him to agree personal terms with Newcastle United.
Despite some details still to be finalised, Sesko is expected to sign a five-year contract with Newcastle. This is a surprising development, as many had expected Sesko to go to the Emirates or Old Trafford. However, Newcastle later agreed to pay a large sum for the 22-year-old striker (80-90 million euros).
Newcastle United finished fifth in the Premier League last season with 66 points, qualifying for the Champions League. Sesko's arrival is expected to boost the Magpies' attack, especially as Alexander Isak is rebelling to leave.
Sesko, with 25 goals and 8 assists in the Bundesliga in the 2024/25 season, is one of the most sought-after young strikers in Europe at the moment. Previously, Manchester United were closely following the Leipzig striker.
MU even contacted Sesko's representative directly and entered the official negotiation stage with Leipzig. However, many factors occurred that made it highly likely that the "Red Devils" failed to recruit the Slovenian striker.
