Sesko was removed from the list.

The Benjamin Sesko deal is heating up by the hour as RB Leipzig removed the Slovenian striker from the squad for the friendly match against Atalanta on the evening of August 2.

Sesko could play for MU or Newcastle this summer.

The German team's move comes as Manchester United and Newcastle step up their negotiations, suggesting Leipzig are ready to sit at the negotiating table.

The fact that Sesko is not injured but has been left out of Leipzig's squad is a clear sign that the deal is entering the decisive stage. The German club has a reason to keep the 22-year-old striker, avoiding the risk of injury that could affect the negotiations.

According to The Athletic , Newcastle have offered £70 million to persuade Leipzig to let him go. This fee is said to be close to the valuation that the German team set for Sesko. However, MU has not withdrawn.

Despite not having a place in the European Cup in 2025/26, the "Red Devils" still see Sesko as a long-term target, especially in the context of their need to upgrade their attack. MU has made clear progress in the deal and is still in close contact with the player's representative.

With both Newcastle and Manchester United keen on him, Sesko's future could be decided in the coming days. If successful, it could be one of the most notable signings of the summer transfer window.
