Sesko has been heavily linked with Newcastle over the past few days amid increasing uncertainty over the future of Alexander Isak.
However, there has been contact between United and RB Leipzig over the 22-year-old Slovenian.
Sesko has an informal agreement with the Bundesliga club that means he would be able to leave if an elite club came in with an offer in the region of £70m.
United are also interested in Ollie Watkins but Aston Villa have made it clear they do not want to sell the 29-year-old.
