Manchester United is recommended by Vlahovic to serve Seschko, the player himself has made a clear statement

Manchester United faces fierce competition from Newcastle United in front signings, and the focus of the two sides is RB Leipzig scorer Benjamin Scheshko. According to the latest news, Manchester United has been provided with the opportunity to sign Juventus forward Duchamp Vlahovic as an alternative when it is unable to introduce Seschko.

At the end of last month, Manchester United identified Slovenian international Slovenian Sishko as the primary target for forward signings this summer. However, Newcastle United also pursued Sheshko strongly and has submitted a formal offer to Leipzig: the basic transfer fee is 80 million euros, plus a floating clause of up to 10 million euros.

In the face of Newcastle's actions, Manchester United reiterated its position: as long as Sheshko himself clearly expresses his willingness to join, the club will immediately submit a formal offer. Sheshko is still the first choice striker on Manchester United's signing list.

However, it has been reported that Manchester United may have no intention of matching the high bid terms proposed by Newcastle. If we cannot sign Seschko as we wish, Manchester United will have to consider other goals. Aston Villa striker Oli Watkins has many supporters within Manchester United. At the same time, well-known transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano revealed that Manchester United recently received information about the possibility of Vlahovic being signed.

It is reported that for three consecutive days last Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Manchester United received contacts on the operation of the transfer. The Serbian striker has played 145 games for the Zebras and scored 58 goals since transferring to Juventus from Fiorentina for £66.6 million in January 2022.

Although Vlahovic was described as ready to accept the transfer, Manchester United once again emphasized its determination to prioritize Seschko. The club said it will continue to focus on completing the deal with Sheshko before considering other goals.

In Juventus, Vlahovic has entered the last year of his contract and the club is willing to let him leave the team. The high salary of players is believed to have put a lot of financial pressure on Juventus. Juventus general manager Damian Comoli recently confirmed: "If a suitable offer comes, he can leave, but we have not received such an offer yet."

It is worth noting that AC Milan is also a long-term suitor for Vlahovic. Current market news shows that Vlahovic's transfer fee may be as low as 25 million euros.
