The arrival timeline for the Slovenian has now been revealed.

The Slovenian striker is sought-after for a reason. He’s strong in the air, quick, knows where the goal is and links up well with his teammates. Having a striker as versatile as Šeško will enable Amorim to set his team up in multiple ways. The 22-year-old is impressive when taking on defenders and creating space to shoot. Šeško will bring a much-needed presence to the Old Trafford attack, but can he help the club get back to challenging for trophies?
