Shearer’s Take on Sesko’s Man United Move…
Alan Shearer confesses Newcastle will again feel the sting of disappointment if they miss out on Benjamin Sesko to Manchester United. This frustration comes amid Newcastle’s sensational 2024/25 season, marked by snagging their first trophy in 50 years and clinching Champions League spots, while United barely rose from the ashes in 15th place like a phoenix with a sprained wing. However, despite obliterating United with a 6-1 aggregate score last year, it seems the prized Sesko prefers Old Trafford, where history whispers sweet nothings of yore.
Sesko, who shines like a rare gem in a heap of football rocks, is hot property at RB Leipzig. Newcastle’s quest for this Slovenian sensation was swifter than a cheetah chasing a never-ending line of sausages, yet Manchester swooped in. Alan Shearer, who might need more hats to cover his frustration, can’t believe Newcastle’s terrible transfer luck this summer. Adding to the woes, former star Antony Elanga is the sole new face, while other targets dance off to rival tunes. Newcastle’s situation could be as grim as a football team without footballs if Isak calls it quits, leaving the Magpies’ next Champions League adventure looking light on firepower.
