      This is a good thing. It means he’s contributed significantly for us and still looks to be improving.

      Im happy with this signing. The attitude of this kid will make him a world class striker

      Yeah, no issues with that.. good that recruitment team included those clauses. Hopefully Sesko does this for years to come for us and helps us win big trophies.

      It means he’s done well. I expect this lad to do even better next season, it’ll be a delight to see him tearing teams in Europe apart.

      9 goals in the league so far. If he can get another 1 or 2 it will be a decent first season. Has to kick on though, needs to hit 15+ in the league next season

      Considering his goals won us the Fulham, Palace, Everton games and got a point against West Ham, that ten points could be what gets us into the Champions League and around 80 million extra.

      That’s how much strikers cost these days, and if he’s still here in a few years then he’s been a success

      Good effort so far and he seems to adapt to what Bruno and co are telling him on the pitch

      Strikers are in short supply. Young, tall, quick, athletic strikers with high potential and experience at Bundesliga level are in even shorter supply.

      Its probably a little higher than standard but this is just not an unusual price point for a player like Sesko now, unfortunately. It adds pressure and is free trash talk for opposition fans the second someone this expensive isn’t as good as Kane or Lewandowski off the bat but it is not a remarkable price.

      Chelsea paid about €70m fee for Joao Pedro from Brighton (plus what ever they added off the books or has not been reported) and Sesko was younger, taller, faster and had scored twice as many goals as Pedro in the Bundesliga with Champion’s league experience.

      Sometimes I think journalism is at a low point, then I see some plucky young reporter with a scoop like this!

      That friendly requirement is an interesting inclusion.

      As RB, do you do it this summer with a return to CL likely for Man Utd? Do you wait until next summer when United may overall be in a better position and then you can maybe charge more fkr the tickets?

      Didnt see this for isak or wirtz, why is there always a money narrative for us. Also really happy with the signing, great attitude and the hunger for goals is there

      not a problem with this, but I dont get why we only get these extra details that add to the fees after the fact

      other clubs and players its always just basic fee and forget making there net sales look good
