iNews: Manchester United and Newcastle match quotations + salary, Sheshko seems to be more inclined to Manchester United

Hupu August 5th News UK iNews Manchester United + Newcastle reporter updated the Sheshko deal.

Manchester United has submitted a offer of nearly £74m to RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sheshko, who is confident of surpassing Newcastle United.

Newcastle United bid £78.2 million on Monday to try to speed up the Slovenian international, of which £69.5 million is the initial transfer fee and the rest may be used as an additional payment.

RB Leipzig is considering both deals, but sources said the offer from both clubs will be accepted and the players' salary requirements will be accepted by both clubs, without any problems.

iNews reported on Monday that Manchester United had been preparing for a offer for some time, and a reassessment of their financial situation means they can take action immediately. Given that funds are still tight, they have been waiting for the opportunity to avoid getting involved in the bidding war.

Manchester United needs to get hints from the player himself to indicate that he is interested in transferring. Several sources revealed that the 22-year-old's agent promised that they would not be discouraged by missing the Champions League and would be willing to listen to Manchester United's proposal.

An insider insists that the club is confident that Sheshko will transfer to Old Trafford, not St. James Park.

Now, it all depends on Sheshko, and the final decision will be made on Tuesday.

Manchester United has long been targeting Sheshko, and the current plan to sign the young forward is driven by signing director Christopher Veville, who brought him to Salzburg Red Bull when Sheshko was 16 years old.

It is worth mentioning that Sesco has been positive about Newcastle United's signing plan throughout the transfer, so the club has not been in trouble in the past few days. But if he leans more towards United – at least one well-informed person thinks so – then they will have to turn their attention elsewhere.
