Premier
OUT
Injury Knee
Est. Return 12/21/2025
Will miss more time than expected
Sesko (knee) will be out for slightly longer than expected due to injury and could return in the second part of December at best, coach Ruben Amorim said in the press conference. "Sesko is going to take a little bit more time. It will take a little bit longer and we are taking care of him."
ANALYSIS
Sesko was expected to miss several weeks in the last update from last week but will now be out for slightly longer than expected, which suggests he could return at the very end of December at best. With the striker sidelined and Matheus Cunha (head) not ready to return yet, Joshua Zirkzee is expected to get a larger role in the frontline for the Red Devils.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Expected to join Manchester United
Sesko is expected to reject Newcastle United to join Manchester United, according to Sky Sports.
ANALYSIS
Sesko has been linked with both Premier League clubs, and even though Manchester United submitted a smaller offer compared to Newcastle's, it seems the Slovenian forward wants to move to Old Trafford. Sesko is training on his own and away from his teammates at Leipzig, so a deal could be confirmed any time soon.
