Slaying two birds with one stone! Manchester United s signing of Cesco will indirectly hinder Liverpool from introducing Isack

August 9: Manchester United just announced the signing of Leipzig striker Sesco. According to previous reports, the total transfer fee will reach 85 million euros.

While making heavy reinforcements to the front line, Manchester United's move may indirectly hinder the progress of his arch-rival Liverpool's signing of Isaac.

It was previously reported that Newcastle also participated in the battle for Sesco, but the player eventually chose Manchester United as the next stop in his career. At the same time, Liverpool has long maintained interest in Newcastle striker Isaac, and their previous formal offer was rejected by Newcastle.

It is reported that before Newcastle sells Isaac, it needs to find and sign a replacement in the forward position, otherwise Isaac's transfer will be shelved. After all, the team has never been able to buy a center, so it is very likely that Isaac will not be letting go. Joao Pedro and Ekitic both rejected Newcastle and went to Chelsea and Liverpool respectively.

According to media reports, Newcastle's replacement list includes Villa's Watkins and Belgian striker Oponda, as well as Chelsea's Jackson and Brentford's Visa.

Therefore, Manchester United's move to introduce Sesco can be said to kill two birds with one stone: strengthening its lineup and indirectly hindering Liverpool's process of signing new players.

On October 18, Liverpool will face visiting Manchester United at home.
