Manchester United coincided with a £74 million bid from Newcastle RB Leipzig star Benjamin Sesco, and Rasmus Hoilund was able to head in the opposite direction with bad news from Alexander Isaac and Liverpool
Alexander Isaac was in Limbo on Tuesday night – a Newcastle striker is wanted, fearing that Benjamin Sesco could drive his dream move to Liverpool.
As Manchester United matched the magpie £74 million bid for RB Leipzig Hitman Sesco, the Slovenians need to decide which club he will participate in
However, if he chose United before Newcastle, Isaac could find himself on Norman’s land in a new season just 10 days away. And the scenario is increasingly expected as Bundesliga is keen to acquire United’s non-compliant Rasmus Hojlund on the deal.
Toon officials have made it clear to the Swedes that Liverpool will only sell him if they match their ratings and have alternatives lined up.
Liverpool has submitted its first bid for £110 million and add-ons so far. And they won’t come back until Newcastle brings a replacement for their awards assets.

Newcastle wants to resolve the situation as quickly as possible.
They wanted United’s delay in bidding for Sesco to leave them firmly in the driver’s seat, but now both clubs have made similar offers to Leipzig, leaving the final decision firmly in the courts of Sesco.
The player was trained indoors by his teammates, and his departure was imminent. Various German sources claim he supports the move to Old Trafford despite a lack of European football next season.
However, Newcastle doesn’t give up knowing that they can’t land yet another top transfer target, as they have already missed Brian Mbeumo, Liam Dellup, Joa Pedro, Hugo Echicchique and Dean Huyssen.
And while no one in the club will admit that, they would rather Sesco lead the offense than the disgruntled Isaac, who would rather wear a Liverpool red shirt.
Magpies are confident in signing Joane Wissa, despite the price tag that Brentford slapped him with two offers so far.
And they stepped up their bid to land half Malik Chiau, AC Milan’s 23-year-old center.
