Benjamin Sesko Not Out ‘Super Long’ After Man Utd Injury

Published

Benjamin Sesko is set to not be out for ‘super long’ after suffering an injury for Manchester United at the weekend, according to GIVEMESPORT senior reporter Fabrizio Romano.

The Slovenian international striker has endured a testing start to life at Old Trafford since arriving from Bundesliga giants RB Leipzig in August, scoring just two goals in 12 outings thus far for the Red Devils.

In his side’s most recent outing, Sesko was introduced after 58 minutes by Ruben Amorim at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with Man Utd one goal to the good courtesy of Bryan Mbuemo, but he was forced off the pitch with a knee injury.

United’s trip to Spurs ended with a dramatic 2-2 draw after an exhilirating last-gasp equaliser, with Romano now issuing the Red Devils with some injury news regarding the striker.

Sesko replaced fellow summer signing Matheus Cunha just before the hour-mark, but his cameo against Spurs was short-lived for the Slovenian striker, after failing to profit from a couple of chances to double United’s lead.

With Amorim’s side still searching for a second goal, the 22-year-old’s afternoon was ended prematurely following a challenge with Spurs centre-back Micky van de Ven, which saw Sesko remain on the turf as the hosts broke down the other end of the field.

As a result of the Portuguese manager already making five substitutions, Man United were forced to see out the clash with ten men, earning a point in the final moments courtesy of a leveller from Matthijs de Ligt.

Although no official confirmation has come out of Old Trafford, senior GIVEMESPORT correspondent Romano has revealed that it will take ‘some time’ for the centre-forward to recover, but thankfully for Amorim, it will not be a “super long” absence.

Via his YouTube Channel, in an injury update on the Man Utd frontman, Romano explained:

While I’m recording this video it’s 2:30pm in England, but still no official statement from Manchester United on the injury of Benjamin Sesko.

My Information guys is that internally at Man United, they feel that it’s not going to be a super long injury, so not 6, 7 or 8 months, it’s not that kind of injury. That’s the feeling of Manchester United.

It’s going to take some time. Of course, he’s not going to be ready tomorrow morning, but it’s not going to be a super long injury. And that’s obviously important news.

Following the Spurs stalemate, the Red Devils return to Premier League action after the international break with the visit of Everton and a trip to Crystal Palace, but it seems as though Amorim will be unable to call upon Sesko’s services.

Tottenham have opened talks to sign a Manchester City midfielder who Enzo Maresca’s side are desperate to keep hold of.

Spurs have been one of the busiest sides in the summer transfer window so far, already securing six new additions to their squad.

It is no surprise that they have been incredibly active in the market after finishing 17th in the Premier League two seasons on the bounce.

They showed signs of improvement towards the end of the last campaign after Roberto De Zerbi was appointed, so it’s no surprise that the board are looking to back him.

Tottenham looked like they were facing the serious threat of relegation before De Zerbi took over, but he managed to steer them back in the right direction.

According to a report from TeamTalk, Tottenham are one of the sides to have opened talks to sign Manchester City midfielder Xavier Parker in the summer transfer window.

The Manchester club are believed to be desperate to keep hold of the 16-year-old talent, making him an ‘outstanding’ offer that is believed to be among the strongest financial packages to a player of his age in Europe.

Tottenham are believed to be in a race against eight other clubs to secure the signature of the young star, who is widely regarded as one of the best in his age group in English football.

Parker, described as a game-breaking midfielder, is yet to agree terms on a professional contract with City, which has alerted other clubs such as Tottenham.

Tottenham are also pushing to secure the signature of Bournemouth forward Eli Jr Kroupi in the summer transfer window.

Reports have suggested that Tottenham are preparing to make an opening bid of around £75 million to sign the youngster after his breakthrough season with the Cherries.

Spurs are believed to be at the front of the queue for Kroupi as they are planning to offer him an immediate start and role.

Paris Saint-Germain are also believed to be interested in signing Kroupi, but with their star-studded attack, he is going to find it difficult to break into the starting eleven immediately.

English FA May Appeal Jarell Quansah’s Red Card vs Mexico

FIFA’s decision to suspend Folarin Balogun’s red card could prompt England to appeal Jarell Quansah’s sending-off in the win over Mexico.

Quansah was dismissed in the 54th minute of the Three Lions’ famous victory over the Mexicans at the Azteca. The former Liverpool defender slid in to win the ball but unintentionally left his studs on Mexican left-back Jesus Gallardo.

Thomas Tuchel slammed the officiating during the game including VAR’s decision to intervene and send referee Alireza Faghani to the pitchside monitor. The German’s frustrations appear to be shared by the FA.

FA Consider Appealing Quansah Red Card

According to Sky Sports, the FA are considering an appeal against Quansah’s red card, although no decision has been made. They are weighing up all options ahead of England’s quarter-final clash with Norway on Saturday.

The incident occurred after the Three Lions were 2-1 ahead following Jude Bellingham’s first-half brace. Julian Quinones equalised on the stroke of half-time before Tuchel’s men were reduced to ten men early in the second half.

England were awarded a penalty after Mexican goalkeeper Raul Rangel brought Anthony Gordon down in the box. Harry Kane put his side 3-1 up from the spot, but more controversy took hold in the 69th minute.

Mexico were awarded a penalty, which Raul Jimenez tucked away to ignite a chaotic finish to the game. Tuchel’s troops held on and secured a huge win in an all-time classic at the Azteca.

What Tuchel Said

Tuchel celebrated the victory with his players before speaking to the media and ripping into the officiating. The German hit out at the two VAR calls that saw Quansah sent off and Mexico awarded a penalty when Brian Gutierrez went down under a challenge from Kane.

The England boss told BBC Sport:

“It’s just not good enough. Referees are just not good enough. Fourth officials are just not good enough. It’s the bottom line. Is this a clear and obvious mistake for the [Mexico] penalty? For sure not, but VAR gets involved. They overturn a situation where he doesn’t even give a foul. Not good enough.”

Man Utd Withdraw from Race for Mexican Teenager Gilberto Mora

Manchester United have pulled out of yet another race during the summer transfer window.

The Red Devils have been in the market for a host of different players over the last few weeks, but they have been struggling to get deals over the line.

Elliot Anderson recently signed for Manchester City, while Mateus Fernandes joined Tottenham Hotspur, and they were two key targets for the Manchester club.

The lack of signings could be a concern for United supporters, especially as they are losing out to some of their rival clubs.

Missing out on signings to a club like Tottenham, with all due respect, will be a huge blow for United. Spurs are without any European football this season, but players are still picking Tottenham over them, perhaps due to financial reasons.

According to a report from Team Talk, Manchester United have now withdrawn from the race to sign Mexican youngster Gilberto Mora in the summer transfer window.

A number of clubs are showing an interest in the 17-year-old star this summer, and United have reportedly been tracking him for six months.

The report claims that United have withdrawn from entering the bidding due to the potential cost of a deal and the level of interest from other clubs.

It’s claimed that the valuation of Mora is set to exceed £34m, but with clubs such as Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, AC Milan, Ajax, Manchester City, and Arsenal all linked with a move, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see that value increase.

As mentioned, United supporters must be getting frustrated with the lack of business they’ve been doing over the last few weeks.

Missing out on key targets is a huge blow, and they need to get deals over the line if they want to compete on all fronts next season.

The Manchester club qualified for Champions League football, meaning they need a deeper and more competitive squad in order to flourish.

With Casemiro departing and Manuel Ugarte suffering a serious injury, United undoubtedly need to bring in new midfielders in the coming weeks and months.
