Manchester United prepared to match Newcastle bid for Šeško, per Sky Germany

Here’s the latest on the movement of Die Roten Bullen’s Slovenian striker.

After it was reported last night that RB Leipzig rejected Newcastle United’s first bid for Benjamin Šeško, talks have resumed today. 

Sky Germany’s intel suggests negotiations have been continuing since early this morning, August 3, with Šeško’s agents still in Leipzig.

Furthermore, fellow Premier League club Manchester United, who are also keen on the Slovenian, are ready to match Newcastle’s offer.

Everything depends on the 22-year-old’s decision, therefore the situation is ideal for Leipzig who would welcome a possible bidding war.

Newcastle’s offer of €75million plus €5million in bonuses was attractive for Leipzig – but the payment structure would need to be adjusted.
