    Why Benjamin Sesko Rejected Move to Newcastle

    With Newcastle currently embroiled in a battle to block Isak from leaving, Romano fears other top stars are being ‘scared off’ from making the same move and falling into the same trap of being blocked from departing for a bigger and better club.

    “I think there is a crucial point here. We always see Newcastle signing many players, bringing top players to the club, but it’s difficult to see Newcastle selling players,” Says Romano.

    “And sometimes some players who are younger and maybe want to develop in a different way, maybe they are scared to go to Newcastle and not having the opportunity to leave the club in maybe two or three years.

    “So I think Alexander Isak can be also the opportunity for Newcastle to show that, yes, sometimes you also have to sell your players. You can’t always to keep all of them.

    “So I think this is one of the points. Sometimes players are scared to go there because maybe they have to stay there for five years. And some of them in modern football want to leave after two or three years is part of the game.”

    However, Football Report understands that Man Utd have Paris Saint-Germain striker Randal Kolo Muani shortlisted as a potential alternative to Sesko, should they miss out in a major twist.

    With Liam Delap declaring for Chelsea, Hugo Ekitike joining Liverpool, Viktor Gyokeres completing his transfer to Arsenal, and Victor Osimhen returning to Galatasaray, the Slovenian is one of the last sought-after centre-forwards left on the market.

    Therefore, Sesko is now a top target for Man Utd who are seeking a new striker to complete a new-look attacking trident following the arrivals of Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo.
