Man United Prepared to Sell Rasmus Hojlund Below £35m Amid Sesko Pursuit

News summary

Manchester United is poised to overhaul its attacking options this summer, with a strong focus on acquiring RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko amidst competition from Newcastle United. United is reportedly ready to sell Rasmus Højlund for significantly less than the £72 million they paid two years ago, with a price tag around £30-35 million reflecting his underwhelming performance last season and a strategic move to balance the books under PSR restrictions. Despite Højlund's expressed desire to stay and fight for his place, manager Ruben Amorim has indicated no guarantees for his future in the squad. United’s pursuit of Sesko faces challenges as Leipzig demands a fee exceeding £70 million, and Newcastle appears ready to increase their bid, intensifying the transfer battle. Potential swap deals involving Højlund and Sesko have been speculated, while United also monitors other attacking options such as Ollie Watkins. The club’s willingness to take a financial loss on Højlund highlights a clear shift in direction under Amorim as the transfer window progresses.
