Why is Rasmus Hojlund vs Benjamin Sesko trending right now?
The rumour mill has been in full effect with Benjamin Sesko linked with a move from RB Leipzig to Man Utd this summer. That will put him in direct competition with Rasmus Hojlund in the Old Trafford attack.
It’s been reported that Man Utd have made initial contact with Leipzig about the availability of the Slovenian attacker and things are looking likely that he’ll make the move to the Premier League, although that could be to Newcastle who are also linked to Sesko.
Rasmus Hojlund was the main striker for Man Utd last season but failed to impress, scoring just four goals. That leads Man Utd to be looking for an upgrade in the final third. They’ve brought in both Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo but are looking for a central striker to finalised their new look line up.
