“Fabrizio Romano Drops BOMBSHELL: Newcastle Set to Smash Records with JAW-DROPPING Offer for Lightning-Fast Superstar in EPIC Statement Deal!”

Newcastle United are reportedly preparing to make a major move to replace Alexander Isak this summer, with Benjamin Sesko identified as a top target, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The 2024/25 season was a historic one for the Magpies, highlighted by their Carabao Cup triumph—the club’s first domestic trophy in 70 years—and a return to the Champions League for the second time in three seasons under Eddie Howe’s leadership.

However, the current transfer window has presented challenges. James Trafford, once a primary goalkeeper target, is now expected to return to Manchester City.

Meanwhile, Hugo Ekitike slipped through their grasp, and news has emerged that star striker Alexander Isak is eyeing a summer exit.

Isak’s departure would be a significant setback for Newcastle, but they appear to have already lined up a potential successor.

Romano reports that Newcastle are “very keen” on Benjamin Sesko, the highly-rated Slovenian striker currently at RB Leipzig.

Sesko, who joined Leipzig in 2023, has quickly risen to prominence and is widely regarded as one of Europe’s most exciting young forwards.

His future at Leipzig has been under the spotlight since the club failed to secure Champions League qualification.

With several clubs keeping tabs on him, Newcastle present an attractive option—offering Premier League football, European competition, and potentially the chance to be the club’s leading striker if Isak departs.

Previous reports suggested that Newcastle were open to playing both Ekitike and Isak together.

A similar dynamic could be in play if Isak remains and Sesko is signed, with the latter praised as “one of the fastest forwards in the world.”

Regardless of Isak’s decision, few forwards on the market offer the same blend of youth, talent, and potential as Sesko—making him a top option for the Magpies.
