Benjamin Šeško Reacts to Manchester United Interest as Release Clause Rises
The summer transfer window is starting to sizzle, and one of Europe’s most promising young forwards has broken his silence. Benjamin Šeško of RB Leipzig addressed the rumors linking him with Manchester United during a press conference earlier today, offering a composed yet cautious response.
“I’m focused on my role at Leipzig,” said Šeško when asked about the Premier League club’s interest. “It’s an honor to be linked with a club like Manchester United, but my main goal is to continue growing and supporting my team.”
Though his response was polished and reserved, speculation has only grown.
Adding intrigue, reports surfaced shortly before the conference that Šeško’s release clause has increased. Set to become active in summer 2025, the clause is now reportedly valued at €65 million—higher than before—intensifying competition for his signature.
Manchester United have tracked the 20-year-old Slovenian striker for some time, viewing him as a potential star at Old Trafford. With uncertainty surrounding the team’s depth behind Rasmus Højlund, Šeško stands out as a major target.
“We’re always keeping an eye on top talent across Europe,” a club source shared. “Šeško has repeatedly shown quality at a high level.”
The news has ignited debate among United supporters online—should the club make a move now before his value increases further, or wait and risk losing him to bigger competition?
Will Benjamin Šeško become the Premier League’s next breakout star? Or will Leipzig manage to keep hold of their young talent for another year?
What’s certain is that this transfer story is gaining momentum, and today’s remarks have only amplified the excitement.
