Manchester United chase Marko Arnautovic and Benjamin Sesko in bid to boost attacking options – Paper Round

Man Utd continue their search for a striker Manchester United are ready to make moves to bring in two attackers before the transfer window closes. Goal report that the Premier League side want to sign Marko Arnautovic from Bologna, while there is genuine interest in a big-money move for Red Bull Salzburg’s promising teenager Benjamin Sesko. Arnautovic is viewed as a low-cost option, who can offer experience and versatility to their attack.

The 33-year-old would cost around £8 million and is keen to move to Old Trafford. Sesko could be more tricky as Salzburg are demanding £50 million for the 19-year-old striker.
