Man United approach Leipzig over potential Sesko deal - sources

Manchester United have made contact with RB Leipzig over a move for Benjamin Sesko, sources have told ESPN.

Formal negotiations have not yet started, but United have reached out to the Bundesliga side to explore their financial demands for the striker.

RB Leipzig, according to sources, value the 22-year-old Slovenia international at between €80 million ($92m) and €90m ($103m).

That is likely to be too expensive for United, who will hope to agree a compromise over the fee.
