🚨 Manchester United have officially completed the blockbuster signing of Benjamin Šeško from RB Leipzig for a fee of £74 million.

With the 21-year-old striker passing all stages of his medical earlier today. This deal marks one of the marquee moves of the summer transfer window, as United continue to reshape their attack ahead of the new Premier League season.

 

Šeško, regarded as one of Europe’s brightest young forwards, arrives at Old Trafford after an impressive season in the Bundesliga where he showcased his pace, aerial dominance, and clinical finishing. Standing at 6’5”, the Slovenian international has drawn comparisons to some of the game’s elite target men but also offers mobility and link-up play that fits Erik ten Hag’s system perfectly.

 

Manchester United fans won’t have to wait long to see their new star in the flesh — the club has confirmed Šeško will be officially unveiled on the pitch at Old Trafford tomorrow, just before kick-off in their final pre-season friendly against Fiorentina. The event is expected to generate a carnival atmosphere as supporters welcome the striker they hope will lead the line for years to come.

 

The signing is also a statement of intent from United’s new ownership structure, with Ineos making it clear they are willing to back Ten Hag with significant investment. Šeško’s arrival could spark further movement in the squad, with speculation mounting over the future of Rasmus Højlund, who may find his starting role under threat.

 

For Šeško, this move represents the next big step in his career. Speaking to club media, he expressed excitement at joining “one of the biggest clubs in world football” and promised to “give everything” to help the team win trophies. All eyes will now be on Old Trafford tomorrow as a new chapter

begins.
