The situation also depends on what happens with Alexander Isak. To complicate matters further, Plettenberg also captured information stating that Manchester United is now also firmly in the running for the Slovenian: Manchester United and Newcastle are currently in talks with Benjamin #Sesko‘s management. Both teams have presented their projects and financial offers. #MUFC The decision now lies mainly with the player and his camp. Offers are expected to be formally submitted to RB Leipzig following the verbal agreement. However, #NUFC pushing a lot.Where things could turn in favor of Newcastle is if Alexander Isak leaves for Liverpool FC, which is expected to happen in the coming weeks.

Germany Press Conference and Training Session - UEFA European Under-21 Championship 2025 Final Photo by Boris Streubel - UEFA/UEFA via Getty Images Nick Woltemade is the next big target for Bayern Munich... Woltemade pursuit has Bayern puzzled for now (FCB Inside via @iMiaSanMia)Bayern Munich still wants Nick Woltemade...and VfB Stuttgart still does not want to give him up. For Bayern Munich CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen, the situation has been an odd one. “We have a situation that has been talked about often enough. We made an offer. That hasn’t led to any discussions to date – and that’s the status quo. I’ve said elsewhere that I don’t like to talk about players of other clubs, and Nick Woltemade is currently a player of VfB Stuttgart. We’ll see how things develop,” Dreesen told FCB Inside (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). “Our industry is so crazy that everything is normal and sometimes abnormal.”When asked if the club would up its offer, Dreesen passed the buck (figuratively, not literally): “I must explicitly say that this is certainly also the task of my esteemed colleague Max Eberl, together with Christoph Freund.”Bayern Munich will likely take another run at this, though it will not be easy. BVB scoping Trossard (Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg)Earlier this summer, Bayern Munich was linked to Arsenal FC attacker Leandro Trossard.Those rumors lacked substance, but that might not stop Borussia Dortmund from taking a run at the Belgian: Borussia Dortmund are monitoring Leandro #Trossard.

The 30 y/o winger also has two concrete offers from Premier League clubs. A move in this window is possible. #BVB

He is under contract at Arsenal until 2027.@SkySportDE pic.twitter.com/z7rFLXhNlm— Florian Plettenberg (@Plettigoal) July 29, 2025Bavarian Podcast Works — Preview Show: Bayern Munich vs. Olympique Lyon (Bavarian Football Works) Bayern Munich has had quite a week.
