Newcastle United is leading the way in acquiring RB Leipzig's striker Benjamin Sheshko. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
However, the situation may change. Previously, there were reports that Newcastle had reached an agreement with both Leipzig and the player himself.
In this regard, Newcastle has outpaced Manchester United. Nevertheless, according to journalist Aleks Kruk's latest information, Newcastle representatives are still concerned that Sheshko might change his mind and prefer to move to Manchester United.
The player is not rushing and is waiting for a suitable offer from the English club. According to available information, Newcastle has agreed to pay more than 80 million euros for the 22-year-old striker.
Manchester United is currently not ready to meet this demand. Therefore, no definitive decision has been made regarding Sheshko's future yet.
Negotiations for this transfer are ongoing, and it is expected that the club to which the player will move will be revealed in the coming days.
