Benjamin Šeško to Man Utd: RB Leipzig Release Statement with Transfer One Step Away.
RB Leipzig have officially confirmed that Benjamin Šeško is on the verge of completing a sensational transfer to Manchester United, with only final details left to conclude the move.
In a formal statement released earlier today, the Bundesliga club acknowledged ongoing talks with Manchester United and revealed that the Slovenian striker is “expected to complete his move imminently,” signaling that all parties are aligned. Leipzig’s sporting director noted:
“We’ve been in advanced discussions with Manchester United. Benjamin has expressed his desire, and we respect that. Talks have been positive, and we expect a resolution very soon.”
Šeško, 22, has been United’s top attacking target this summer, and after weeks of negotiation, the Red Devils have all but sealed the deal. Reports indicate the fee is in the region of €85 million, with add-ons potentially taking the total package higher. Personal terms were agreed days ago, and the striker is said to be excited to link up with the likes of Bruno Fernandes, Matheus Cunha, and potentially Rasmus Højlund—though the latter’s future now remains uncertain.
The statement from Leipzig ends speculation around a possible last-minute hijack attempt from clubs like Newcastle and PSG. United’s project, led by INEOS and manager Ruben Amorim, proved decisive in convincing Šeško.
Šeško’s arrival could be announced within the next 48 hours, with a medical and media obligations expected to follow swiftly. Once completed, he’ll become United’s marquee summer signing and will be viewed as a central figure in their rebuild.
United fans will now be eagerly awaiting the club’s official unveiling, as the Šeško era at Old Trafford begins to take shape.
