Manchester United join Newcastle in race to sign former Arsenal target Šeško

The Red Devils are also actively searching for a striker, and Šeško is among the few remaining prominent names on the market.

However, having already spent around €150 million on Matheus Cunha and Brian Mbeumo, United need to offload players before making further significant investments.

According to Florian Plettenberg of Sky Sports Germany, via Sportal, both clubs have presented their projects and financial proposals to the player's agents.

Šeško and his management are expected to review these proposals before deciding which club to prioritise.

Neither Manchester United nor Newcastle will submit an official offer to RB Leipzig until an agreement is reached with the player. Newcastle has shown considerably more urgency in the discussions so far.

Newcastle are under pressure after star striker Alexander Isak reportedly informed the club of his desire to leave for Liverpool.

Šeško is considered a potential replacement for the Swede. Newcastle have more financial flexibility, having only spent €60 million so far this window on Anthony Elanga from Nottingham Forest.
