Manchester United’s Transformation for Benjamin Sesko: What Rasmus Hojlund’s Experience Reveals
Benjamin Sesko, a Manchester United striker, is gradually finding his form under the guidance of manager Ruben Amorim. After experiencing three consecutive victories, the club eagerly anticipates Sesko’s development into a prominent Premier League striker.
Manchester United’s Signing of Benjamin Sesko
Manchester United acquired Sesko from RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga. The transfer fee for the 22-year-old forward could rise to £73.7 million. United outpaced rival clubs, including Newcastle United and Arsenal, for his signature. Arsenal eventually opted for Viktor Gyokeres.
Early Career Challenges
Sesko’s journey at Old Trafford started slowly, with no goals in his first six matches. However, he made a breakthrough against Brentford in September, scoring his first goal. A week later, he netted again against Sunderland, marking the start of his contributions.
Recent Performances and Team Success
In a recent match against Brighton & Hove Albion, Sesko provided his first assist in a thrilling 4-2 victory. This marked Manchester United’s third straight win, placing them in contention for European spots after nine games.
Changing Approaches at Manchester United
Former United striker Louis Saha commended the club’s new handling of players, contrasting Sesko’s situation with that of Rasmus Hojlund. Hojlund struggled at United and was transferred to Napoli. Saha emphasized that the club must introduce players gradually, alleviating the pressure placed on them.
Saha stated, “No player deserves anything, and Benjamin Sesko is starting to understand that he will have to fight for his place.” He highlighted that every opportunity is crucial for players coming off the bench.
Upcoming Matches and Objectives
Sesko will seek to add to his tally in an upcoming clash against Nottingham Forest, scheduled for Saturday at 3 PM. A victory would mark United’s fourth consecutive win, a feat they last achieved in February 2024.
