The striker was a target for United under the tutelage of German coach Ralf Rangnick. The former Red Bull Leipzig man recommended the forward to the club's recruitment team during his stint as caretaker. Whilst not naming the striker specifically, he said previously: "There might be a couple of players - and I have already named those players to the board - that independent from formation, from style of football, and independent from a new manager, that could be of interest for a club like United." Sesko eventually sealed a big-money move as Red Bull Salzburg confirmed his departure for £55m. It wasn't Man United making a move for him though, as Leipzig swooped for his services instead earlier this summer. The 20-year-old has enjoyed a bright start to life in Germany with three goals in six appearances - only one of those being starts. Sesko has since admitted that there was interest from Old Trafford in him but Leipzig was a better fit on the pitch. 'The thing is, I wasn't really involved in these kinds of conversations,' he admitted when asked about the Red Devils interest. 'But I think it was better to come here.'

I already knew what I had to do and didn't have to go through a whole learning process again.' Man United weren't the only club interested in a deal for Sesko over the past few years, with Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain also linked with a move. Those two sides have spent heavily on forwards recently - the Reds signing Darwin Nunez from Benfica, wh){kind=link}
