Manchester United's scouts have been tracking Šeško for over three years and reconnected with him again this year. United highly rate the Slovenian striker's performances on the pitch, believing his playing style suits the Premier League well. Although other clubs are also interested in Šeško, sources have revealed that he prefers to join Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Previously, Arsenal held talks with the Slovenian international, but those negotiations were described as "extremely complicated." Afterwards, the Gunners shifted their focus to Gyökeres, and talks for the Swedish striker are still ongoing.
Manchester United has clearly expressed its desire to strengthen the forward line, but the message conveyed to potential signings is clear: the club must first sell players to have funds for new signings. Sources confirmed that all potential new signings have been informed of the club's current financial situation, and Manchester United is raising funds for transfers by selling players. Moreover, Šeško is not the only candidate for United's forward line signings. Also on United's striker target list are Aston Villa's Watkins and Chelsea's Jackson. Amorim hopes to find a striker who can lead the team and actively engage in aggressive high pressing, and these three candidates possess these qualities in different aspects.
It is understood that given the player's willingness to transfer and his temporary willingness to forego the opportunity to participate in European competitions, Manchester United is considering whether to take concrete action, which mainly depends on the progress of the team's player sales. According to reports, Šeško's transfer fee is around £78 million.
