Benjamin Sesko hinted on why he joined Man United

Manchester United signing Benjamin Sesko has hinted on the reason why he chosed the red devils.

The club officially announced the signing of Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig via its website on Saturday, August 9, 2025, confirming that the 22-year-old Slovenian forward has committed to a five-year contract, which will keep him at Old Trafford until June 2030.

Sesko arrives at Old Trafford after a standout 2024/25 campaign with RB Leipzig, where he scored 21 goals and provided six assists. His impressive goal tally made him the highest-scoring player under the age of 23 in Europe’s top five leagues.

What are Sesko’s reasons for choosing United?

In a statement, Sesko cited Manchester United’s promising future as the key reason for his decision to join the team, even in the face of a more lucrative offer from Newcastle United ahead of the 2025/26 football season.

He expressed enthusiasm for the club’s “positive energy and family environment” and its clear plan for “continued growth and competing for the biggest trophies again soon.” He also mentioned his anticipation of working with manager Ruben Amorim and his new teammates to achieve success.

Supporters of Manchester United are hopeful that Sesko’s arrival will help the team reclaim its former glory both in England and in European competitions.
