Liverpool’s summer transfer plan has taken somewhat of a hit, and it’s not because of anything happening at Anfield. It’s because Benjamin Šeško decided to join Manchester United and the ripple effect it has on their ability to sign their top target,

Matheus Cunha was the first to arrive when he was signed from Wolves with Bryan Mbeumo joining from Brentford before Benjamin Sesko was unveiled as the third new striker before Saturday’s 1-1 draw in the friendly with Fiorentina at Old Trafford.

Manchester United have reached an agreement in principle with RB Leipzig for the signing of striker Benjamin Sesko. A deal worth €76.5million (£66.4m; $89.1m) and €8.5m in add-ons is in place, with Sesko given permission to travel for medical tests ahead of the proposed move.
