Manchester United Rejects Vlahovic Offer, Focuses on Sesko Amid Newcastle Competition

Manchester United are primarily focused on signing RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, amid a transfer battle with Newcastle United who have made substantial bids for the Slovenia international. United have yet to submit a formal offer for Sesko, reportedly waiting for the player to express a preference for the club before negotiating with Leipzig. Meanwhile, Juventus have offered Manchester United the chance to sign Dusan Vlahović, who is available for around €20-25 million due to entering the final year of his contract and being surplus to requirements after Juventus signed Jonathan David. Despite the opportunity to acquire Vlahović at a discounted price, United have rejected the offer as they remain committed to securing Sesko, though they may reconsider Vlahović if the Sesko deal falls through. Vlahović’s high wages are seen as a potential obstacle, and interest from other clubs like AC Milan adds complexity to his future. Former Manchester United player Patrice Evra has endorsed Vlahović as a good signing, highlighting his experience and goal-scoring record.
