But e be like say Man U dey feel very confident say dem go win di race. Sources dey talk say dem believe Šeško go pick Old Trafford over St James’ Park, even if both clubs bring similar offers.
Who Be Benjamin Šeško?
Šeško na 21-year-old striker from Slovenia wey dey ball for RB Leipzig.
E get height, speed, eye for goal and that raw energy wey dey remind people of Haaland (na why dem dey call am “mini Haaland” sometimes).
Last season, e score important goals for Leipzig and show say e fit carry big responsibility for attack. E still young but e dey sharp and ready for next level.
Why Manchester United Dey Confident?
Man United dey reason say dem get edge for many reasons:
- Bigger Brand, Bigger Name
No lie — even though Newcastle dey rise, United still be worldwide brand. Šeško go blow more if e enter Red Devils squad. - Project Fit Am
Ten Hag dey build team around youth — Garnacho, Mainoo, Højlund — and Šeško go fit right in. Na long-term project, and dem fit sell am dream wey go sweet pass. - Striker Rotation with Højlund
Instead of bench life, dem fit run rotation or even use two strikers sometimes. No pressure to carry team alone, unlike Newcastle wey dey depend on Isak and Wilson. - Ten Hag’s Personal Interest
Reports dey say Ten Hag don follow Šeško matter closely. If coach wan you personally, e dey always sweet player.
Wetin Newcastle Dey Offer?
No dull am — Newcastle no be small team again. Under Eddie Howe, dem don turn serious force and even play Champions League ball.
Dem fit offer Šeško:
- More guaranteed playing time
- Direct role as Wilson replacement
- Fast-rising project with big money
But for now, Newcastle still dey build. Dem never fully get that prestige or aura wey United get. Plus, Šeško fit prefer play for club wey don already get worldwide spotlight.
Transfer Details – How E Be?
RB Leipzig no wan sell Šeško on top any how.
- Dem go expect at least €55–65M, and
- Dem no dey under pressure to let am go unless big offer land.
United and Newcastle fit match am, but United dey try play smart — dem dey cook slow and steady.
Player side dey open to move, but e go decide based on project, role, and future potential — not just salary or hype.
Šeško’s Mind – Where E Lean?
Insiders dey talk say:
- Šeško admire Premier League well well
- E dey interested in both clubs
- But e feel say United fit help am reach superstar level faster
So na patience, packaging and direct conversation go decide am. Man United dey bank on history, exposure and Ten Hag’s trust.
Final Take
As e be like this, na real two-horse race — but Manchester United don pull small leg ahead.
Šeško never make final decision, but Red Devils dey feel say dem dey front. If dem fit move sharp with offer, and show am love early, e fit be another young star wey go land Old Trafford.
Transfer window still long — but this one go sweet to watch.
