Benjamin Sesko Nears Manchester United Return as Agent Predicts 'Very Soon' Comeback

United face AFCON selection decisions with Bournemouth approaching, heightening the value of the striker’s swift recovery.

Overview

  • Agent Elvis Basanovic told Slovenian TV that Sesko feels very good, with rehab on plan and a return expected very soon, possibly sooner than first thought.
  • Final clearance rests with Manchester United’s medical team and Rúben Amorim, with no exact comeback date confirmed.
  • Sesko suffered a knee injury on Nov. 8 at Tottenham and has missed four Premier League games, with reports noting he has resumed individual work on grass.
  • The summer signing from RB Leipzig has two league goals in roughly 11 appearances as he settles into Amorim’s rebuilt forward line.
  • Amorim said he expects Sesko back around the time AFCON call-ups begin, while the club continues talks with national teams about keeping Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo and Noussair Mazraoui for the Dec. 15 Bournemouth match.
