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,

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.

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim welcomed Benjamin Sesko to the club and said he is excited by the potential of the new signing. Sesko became United's fourth summer signing when he joined on August 9 from RB Leipzig.
