Manchester United appear to be making significant progress in their transfer pursuit of Benjamin Sesko. The Slovenia international was heavily linked with Arsenal earlier in the transfer window but now looks destined to end up at Old Trafford having become the latest centre forward to snub Newcastle United.

"I know [about the rumours linking him with Chelsea] and have been following him," Petrovic, who now plays for Bournemouth, told Nogomania. "He's having a good half season, he's in great scoring form. I read that he's scored in his last seven matches in a row. He seems to have gained strong momentum for the Euros.

The Slovenian striker has become United's priority as they look to offload the likes of Alejandro Garnacho, Anthony and Jadon Sancho
