Benjamin Sesko: FC Barcelona’s stance on transfer move revealed Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko has had a rollercoaster start to life at Old Trafford. Original goal struggle The Slovenian forward did not score his first goal until late September and only managed two before Christmas. Nonetheless, since the departure of Ruben Amorim, he has plundered many more.
Sesko grabbed three in Darren Fletcher’s two games as caretaker manager and has scored a total of 10 goals this season. This makes him the club’s current top goalscorer, ahead of Bryan Mbeumo. He has also scored crucial goals such as late winners versus Everton and Fulham, and grabbed a last-gasp equaliser against West Ham United.
The young striker has still not managed to get many starts for the Red Devils, with most of his goals coming from the bench. Barcelona rule themselves out Sesko will certainly want to start more games next season, but he will most likely be content with how his first season in England has gone. Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo has somewhat surprisingly linked Sesko to a move to FC Barcelona.
The Catalans are on the lookout for a new number nine, with Robert Lewandowski coming to the end of his career. The paper reported that, “Slovenian Benjamin Sesko was highly regarded last year for his future before leaving Leipzig for Manchester United, who paid €76. 5 million.
