Bayern Munich may pull off a surprise transfer this window. The Bundesliga giants still have interest in Manchester United's Benjamin Sesko. The 23-year-old striker would give Vincent Kompany a new option as he searches for a second striker alongside Harry Kane. Lennart Karl and Serge Gnabry are currently sidelined with injuries.
Why is Bayern interested in Sesko?
Sesko is a classic center-forward, different from Harry Kane. While the Englishman likes to drop deep, the Slovenian is a 'ruthless' goal scorer. Kompany is looking for a successor to Kane and a partner for a two-striker system.
What does the expert say?
Christian Falk confirms that Sesko is on Bayern's wishlist. 'He is a very interesting player for FC Bayern,' said the insider. If Sesko struggles to make an impact in the Premier League, Bayern could make a move in the winter.
When will Sesko return?
The striker missed the last three games of the 2025/26 season due to a shin injury. He has returned to outdoor training and could be fit for the season opener against Hull City on August 22.
