Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has declared that Benjamin Sesko is prepared for their Premier League opener against Arsenal on Sunday.
Sesko might have been lining up for the Gunners this weekend, but a transfer deal collapsed earlier. Instead, he joined United for a fee of approximately £73 million.
The 22-year-old will join forces with summer signings Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo to form a new attacking trio. Though Sesko isn’t fully match-fit yet, Amorim has suggested he could feature from the start against Arsenal.
“Physically, he is ready. That is a big component in our league. He is ready to play. We will see if he is going to start.
“He has great potential in everything he does. He can play different types of football. He’s going to feel that the Premier League is really aggressive,” Amorim said.
United fans will be hoping their new striker gets off to a flying start as they look to right the wrongs of last season’s humiliating campaign.
