Benjamin Sesko reacts to Manchester United signing Rasmus Hojlund
RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko has sent Rasmus Hojlund a message after he completed his move to Manchester United from Italian side Atalanta.
The 20-year-old Denmark international has made the move to United from the Serie A outfit after the Old Trafford club turned to him to fill the void in their striking department. An initial £64m fee was agreed, which could rise to £72m with add-ons.
Hojlund has signed a five-year deal at United, which has the option of a further 12 months on top of that. He was paraded on the pitch at Old Trafford before the club's pre-season friendly win over French side Lens.

“Once I had spoken to the manager, I knew that this environment would be perfect for my development. I am relishing the opportunity to work with one of the best coaches in the world. Under his guidance and support, I know that I am capable of achieving great things together with my new team-mates at this special club.”
