Sesko is expected to cost around \u00a364m<\/a> this summer, and Ineos are pushing ahead with their efforts to sign the 22-year-old RB Leipzig striker.<\/p>\n United\u2019s search for a striker was initially narrowed down to either Benjamin Sesko<\/a> or Aston Villa\u2019s Ollie Watkins, but it seems Ineos have sided with Christopher Vivell and will target the Slovenian.<\/p>\n The Red Devils maintained their unbeaten record in pre-season this summer with an emphatic 4-1 win over Bournemouth<\/a> in the early hours of Thursday morning.<\/p>\n New signings Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha both missed out and watched on from the bench as United put on a brilliant performance.<\/p>\n After the victory, Ruben Amorim<\/a> was directly asked about the transfer links to Sesko but the United boss didn\u2019t give much away.<\/p>\n \u201cThe important thing is Rasmus is scoring goals. I don\u2019t know what will happen until the market is closed,\u201d Amorim admitted.<\/p>\n Ruben Amorim on Sesko reports: “Important thing is Rasmus is scoring goals. I don\u2019t know what will happen until the market is closed.”<\/p>\n \u2014 Simon Stone (@sistoney67) July 31, 2025<\/a> <\/p>\n View Tweet<\/p>\n Hojlund starred against Bournemouth<\/a>, opening the scoring with a well-guided header. There have been whispers of the 22-year-old potentially being involved in a swap deal for Sesko, but Amorim made it clear that he is very happy with the Dane.<\/p>\n Benjamin Sesko and Rasmus Hojlund can push each other<\/p>\n After facing heavy criticism last season, Hojlund looks determined to prove his doubters wrong this summer.<\/p>\n His link-up play vastly improved against Bournemouth, and his goal will only boost his confidence heading into the new campaign.<\/p>\n If Ineos push ahead with a deal to sign Sesko, he will arrive in Manchester with the same age and profile as Hojlund.<\/p>\n![\"Benjamin](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/GettyImages-2213919537-1024x703.jpg\")
