Man Utd Track Youssouf Fofana and Set £64m Price for Benjamin Sesko

Manchester United are monitoring Sevilla loanee Youssouf Fofana while setting a €75 million (£64m) asking price for striker Benjamin Sesko ahead of the transfer window.

United Scouts Monitor Fofana Amid Sevilla Financial Constraints

United scouts have watched Fofana play both home and away matches during his temporary spell at Sevilla from AC Milan. The Spanish club currently covers only a small portion of the French midfielder’s salary under the loan agreement. Covering his full wages remains unattainable for Sevilla, and the club cannot afford a permanent transfer without making a major prior sale.

United’s financial power could easily outpace the Spanish side if Old Trafford officials decide to pursue a formal bid. Fofana joins a crowded midfield department that already features Kobbie Mainoo alongside summer arrivals Santos, Tielemans, and Baleba.

United Set 75 Million Euro Price for Sesko

Sesko’s future at Old Trafford remains uncertain amid interest from Barcelona and Juventus. United have set a €75 million (£64m) asking price to sell the Slovenian striker, a figure sitting below the sum paid to acquire him in the summer of 2025. Reports have not clarified whether Barcelona or Juventus are prepared to meet the £64 million valuation.

Igor Matanovic Internal Discussions At Old Trafford

United are also discussing Freiburg striker Igor Matanovic internally following a series of reports over recent months. Arsenal and Chelsea have both scouted the 6-foot-5-inch forward this season, driving his valuation up to £50 million after he commanded a £30 million price tag in the summer.

Matanovic looks like someone who’s really ready to explode this season. He’s 23 now, entering his prime, and he knows clubs have been looking at him. He’d be open to moving to England if the offers come in.Caught Offside source

Freiburg are not expected to block a transfer if interested English clubs meet their financial demands.
