Manchester United have announced the signing of highly-rated RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko in a deal worth up to £73.7million. Loading audio...

With their spending in this window north of £200m, Manchester United are looking to strengthen after finishing 15th in the Premier League last season, their worst top-flight campaign in 51 years, and losing the Europa League final to Tottenham.

The signing of Sesko, 22, comes after United signed Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £62.5m and Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo for £65m plus £6m in add-ons.

The Slovenian forward signed a five-year contract with the Red Devils after a protracted transfer saga, which saw him reject an approach from Newcastle United.
