Rúben Amorim Hails Šeško’s Readiness as Manchester United Eyes Season Opener

Manchester United coach Rúben Amorim praised new striker Benjamin Šeško for being physically and mentally prepared ahead of their Premier League opener. He called Šeško a key part of the team’s plans for the new season, with reports confirming that Šeško has agreed on personal terms with Manchester United until 2030.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Amorim spoke to the media before United‘s first league game and highlighted Šeško‘s impressive adaptation since joining from RB Leipzig this summer. He said Šeško is “ready to play… a big component in our league.” The coach praised the 22-year-old’s intelligence and eagerness, noting Šeško always asks about details and seeks improvement. Amorim added that the Slovenian could start in the opening match, though he hasn’t decided yet.

MANCHESTER UNITED’S NEW LOOK AND SEASON OUTLOOK

United’s attack changed significantly this transfer window. With only 44 Premier League goals last season, Amorim’s squad aimed to add firepower. They brought in Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo alongside Šeško to form a new front three. This investment is part of a larger strategy, as Manchester United have agreed a transfer for Benjamin Šeško with RB Leipzig for a total of €85 million. Šeško is known for his physicality and technical skill, standing at 6ft 5in but quick and strong in the air. United hope he becomes the missing reference point in attack, bringing new dynamics and consistency.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR ŠEŠKO AND UNITED?

Manchester United open their Premier League campaign against Arsenal at Old Trafford, seeking a strong start. Arsenal finished second last season, while United were fifteenth, missing out on Champions League football. United aim to end in the top four this season, as that would guarantee Champions League football for next season. Fans are curious if Šeško starts and how he links up with teammates in competition for the first time. His adaptation speed could set the season’s tone and determine if United can challenge for a return to the top of English football. According to Rúben Amorim has stated that he is content with the squad ahead of the new season.
