Manchester United are reportedly preparing a major summer shake-up with two high-profile targets in their sights: RB Leipzig's rising star Benjamin Sesko and Sporting Lisbon's highly-rated manager Ruben Amorim.
Sesko Emerges as Top Striker Target
The Red Devils have identified 20-year-old Slovenian striker Sesko as a priority signing to bolster their attacking options. The RB Leipzig forward, who has netted 11 goals this season, is seen as a long-term solution to United's goal-scoring woes.
Amorim Considered for Managerial Role
In a surprising twist, Sporting's Ruben Amorim has emerged as a potential replacement for Erik ten Hag should the Dutchman depart Old Trafford. The 39-year-old Portuguese tactician has impressed with his work in Lisbon, winning the Primeira Liga in 2021.
Summer of Change at Old Trafford
With INEOS now overseeing football operations, United appear set for a transformative transfer window:
- Attack reinforcement: Sesko would compete with Hojlund for the starting spot
- Tactical overhaul: Amorim's 3-4-3 system could replace Ten Hag's approach
- Youth focus: Both targets align with the club's renewed emphasis on developing young talent
The potential moves signal United's ambition to rebuild after a disappointing season, though Leipzig are likely to demand upwards of £40m for their prized young striker.
