They’ve signed Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha to help improve their squad.
Now, there are rumours linking them to Benjamin Šeško.
Rasmus Højlund hasn’t scored enough in the past two seasons.
Even when Joshua Zirkzee joined last year, it didn’t make much difference.
That’s why United are looking for another option.
But is Šeško the right choice, or another risky move?
Now that Benjamin Šeško from RB Leipzig is being linked to United, the club needs to ask one big question:
Are they about to make the same mistake again?
Benjamin Šeško – Hype vs Reality
There’s a lot of excitement around Šeško, and for good reason.
He’s 6’5″, strong, and brings a big physical presence — kind of like Erling Haaland.
He’s fast, can run with the ball for long distances, and moves surprisingly well for someone his size.Last season at RB Leipzig, he scored 13 goals in the Bundesliga – an impressive return for the now 22-year-old, especially considering he only became a regular starter in the second half of the campaign. The numbers and highlight reels suggest a striker who’s only going to get better
.
But here’s the problem — potential isn’t what United need right now.
They already have a young, developing striker in Højlund.
If they sign Šeško too, it could create the same issue again.
Two promising players, but neither one fully ready to lead the attack every week.
Šeško has talent, no doubt.
But he still struggles to be consistent.
He sometimes makes poor decisions in the final third.
And he finds it hard to play well against teams that sit back and defend deep — something United face a lot.
The Striker Dilemma
There’s no question — Benjamin Šeško is a talented player.
But he hasn’t played in the Premier League yet, so no one knows how well he’ll do at Manchester United.
The club is at a turning point.
They can either go all-in for a proven, world-class striker — or wait.
But that chance may already be gone.
They missed out on top targets like Victor Osimhen and Viktor Gyökeres.
Now, United have a tough choice: take a risk, or hold off and wait for the right player.
