Transfer market dey boil, and everybody dey look Manchester United to see who dem go bring in before window close. The Red Devils don dey linked with Benjamin Šeško, the young striker wey dey bang goals for RB Leipzig. But their new manager, Ruben Amorim, don cool the hype small with him latest statement.
Amorim talk say he dey happy with wetin Rasmus Højlund dey do right now, and e no sure say another striker dey urgent like that. Make we unpack the whole matter.
Wetin Amorim Talk?
For press conference wey happen after training, Amorim been dey asked about United’s interest in Šeško, and whether dem really dey chase the guy.
E reply say:
“I’m really happy with Rasmus [Højlund]. I don’t know what is going to happen until the end of the market.
The most important thing is that the strikers who are already here are working really well, improving and helping the team in that way.
That’s the most important thing.”
, from that statement, you fit see say Amorim no dey close door on signing Šeško, but e dey try play am cool. Na typical coach media move — no overtalk, no confirm, just calm cruise.
Højlund Dey Step Up?
Yes, and na why Amorim dey defend am. Last season, people drag Højlund for being inconsistent, but truth be say the guy still young and dey adapt to Premier League pace.
Reports from training talk say Rasmus don dey sharper, more confident, and even dey press more aggressively under Amorim’s high-intensity system. For pre-season, e don show better movement and link-up play too.
So the coach dey try reward that effort by showing trust, instead of throwing him under the bus just because new striker dey market.
Why Šeško Enter The Picture?
Šeško na hot cake. The 21-year-old Slovenian striker get pace, power, and deadly finishing. Last season for Leipzig, e score goals like say na hobby. Na why many top clubs, including Chelsea and Arsenal, don put eye for am.
Man United scouts don dey monitor am for long. And with United still trying to boost firepower upfront, Šeško look like perfect fit — young, hungry, and already showing signs say he go become elite striker.
But Leipzig no go release am cheap — we dey hear £50M–£60M fee, and na long-term investment any club wey go sign am dey make.
Amorim Dey Play Smart?
Of course. Amorim dey use old-school coach tactic — no show desperation. If him talk say dem must buy striker now-now, e go weaken United negotiating position. Sellers go raise price immediately.
But if him maintain say “we’re okay for now,” United fit bargain well, or even walk away if deal no sweet.
Also, e dey protect Højlund confidence. If every press conference turn to “new striker” talk, the boy go lose morale. Amorim no want that at all.
Wetin Next?
Šeško deal still dey possible — especially if Leipzig drop price or United sell some players to balance books.
But from the way Amorim take talk, no be panic move. If the deal make sense, dem go take am. If not, United go carry on with Højlund, Rashford, and maybe one more versatile forward.
Final Yarn
Amorim dey try balance plenty things — media, fans, players, and board expectations. E sabi say United fans dey hungry for goals, but e also sabi say building team no be rush rush.
For now, Šeško matter dey cool. But for transfer market, anything fit happen last minute. We go watch am closely.
Because for Old Trafford this season, na “trust the process” and “watch the drama” dey reign.
