Barcelona and Juventus make contact over Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko

Barcelona and Juventus have made preliminary contact over a possible move for Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko in 2027, according to TuttoJuve.

Juventus are currently ahead of the Spanish club in the race for the Slovenia international, although neither side has made an official offer. The main obstacle is the asking price, with Manchester United valuing Sesko at 75 million euros.

Manchester United signed the forward from RB Leipzig in the summer of 2025 for 76.5m euros. Sesko has made six appearances in all competitions this season and scored two goals.

However, he has not started any of his four Premier League matches and has played a total of just 76 minutes in the competition.
