Manchester United have been told to sanction the Newcastle United star’s move for the Premier League giants “screams” transfer.
On Wednesday, it was revealed that the Red Devils were trapped in the fourth summer signature as they hit a “full agreement” with Newcastle United’s target Benjamin Sesco.
The 22-year-old striker will follow Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Diego Leon, who sign Man UTD, where there is still more to do this summer.
Marcus Rashford is still the only member of Man UTD’s so-called bomb squad to depart this summer, so there are still some exiles to offload.
United also remains in the signing market, in reports that suggest they are in the market for goalkeepers and defensive midfielders.

But United have to think outside the box as their funds are limited, and may be linked to the surprising moves of Newcastle United star Nick Pope after Aaron Ramsdale moves to St. James Park.
Former Premier League goalkeeper Ben Foster explained in the week ending in this window why Mann UTD’s board should sanction the Pope’s move.
“Manchester United are absolutely yelling for goalkeepers,” Foster told the Fozcast podcast.
“You’re going to do much worse than getting Nick Pope. I think it’s going to be a great fit, I really do.
“If you’re trying to get to the area ahead as quickly as possible, Nick Pope is your boy and he’ll stop the goal. Onana suffered this major injury at the start of the preseason.
“But you don’t want that from your goalkeeper. You want him to have four or five preseason games and weeks and weeks of training.
“At the end of last season, many questions were raised, thinking that he probably wasn’t the goalkeeper for his first choice. Nick Pope sees this idea as ‘hmmm’. ”

In terms of United’s striker pursuit, former assistant Rene Mullenstein thinks it would be better to sign Aston Villa star Ollie Watkins to Sesco.
“I’m looking at people like Ollie Watkins available,” Mullenschun said.
“He’s a hardworking player with similar features as Sesco, except that he already has valuable Premier League experience.
“Why doesn’t the club bring Watkins in and don’t let the coach work closely with Hodglund to help him grow?
“That’s a waste of investment. They pay him nearly £80 million and are at risk of selling him for less than half of that unless he develops it.”
