Man Utd and Chelsea have both met with the agent of RB Salzburg striker Benjamin Sesko in the last week. Now they know how much he would cost…
SALZBURG SET SESKO PRICE
Benjamin Sesko is the striker you didn’t know you needed a week ago. Now Manchester United, Chelsea and Newcastle are all eyeing up the teenager.

Indeed, this one won’t be seen near Erik ten Hag’s first-team. According to The Telegraph, Tom Huddlestone is in advanced talks with United over joining the club to serve as a player-coach with the Under-23s.
