Sesko: The Galactic No.9 United Craves!…
Hold onto your football socks, because legendary manager and self-proclaimed occasional football sorcerer Jurgen Klopp just dubbed Benjamin Sesko a ‘ridiculous’ talent! No, he’s not talking about a bird doing cartwheels — he’s going cuckoo over the RB Leipzig hotshot United’s eyeing as their shiny new No.9. His magic feet conjured 21 goals out of thin air in just 45 matches last season!
Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins may be as appealing as Mum’s apple pie, but United’s eyes are firmly set on Sesko like bees to honey. Sesko’s sweet tunes have caught the Red Devils’ attention, with his five-year Leipzig oath stating that a cool £69m to £78m from a ‘top club’ would let him fly anywhere he fancies — and Old Trafford’s pulling the strings on this comical puppet show.
Arsenal tried to sneak in wearing invisibility cloaks this summer, but they veered off course, snatching Viktor Gyokeres instead. Meanwhile, over at Camp Toon Army, Newcastle’s crafting an irresistible Siren Song to lure our hero. In this thrilling game of hot-potato, Klopp’s on the sidelines marveling at the wonder-kid’s boot wizardry, wondering just how Leipzig grows these goal-scoring beans.
