According to Romano and several media reports, Manchester United will sign Cesco with a transfer fee of 85 million euros.
With Newcastle's quote first + high price, Sesco finally chose to join Manchester United. This is another failure in Newcastle to compete with other teams in the transfer window.
It is worth mentioning that Newcastle had previously officially announced the signing of winger Ilanga from Nottingham Forest, with a transfer fee of 55 million pounds. Manchester United has a 15% second-transfer share in Ilanga, so Manchester United can receive about 6 million pounds.
Manchester United indirectly used Newcastle's money to sign Elanga to bring in Sesco and defeated Newcastle, who had bid higher in the player competition.
