In recent weeks, the RB Leipzig centre-forward seemed destined for Newcastle United—a move that could have paved the way for Alexander Isak's transfer to Liverpool. In the end, he won’t be joining the Magpies. According to Sky Sports, Šeško has signed a five-year contract with the Red Devils. The Athletic reports that the transfer is worth €85 million, including bonuses.
