Amorim Backs Sesko After Leeds Draw, Urges Sharper Finishing

Amorim says Sesko is a different profile to Rasmus Hojlund, with one goal likely to lift the pressure.

Overview

  • Benjamin Sesko missed clear chances in Manchester United’s 1-1 draw at Leeds, extending a lean run since his summer arrival.
  • The 22-year-old has two goals in 17 appearances after a reported £73–74m move from RB Leipzig.
  • Ruben Amorim defended the striker as "completely different" to Rasmus Hojlund and said he must improve in the "last moments" in front of goal.
  • Amorim argued United are creating opportunities under a more controlled, possession-focused approach and downplayed concerns over wide service.
  • Hojlund has nine goals in 20 games on loan at Napoli, a contrast that heightens scrutiny as Sesko targets upcoming matches at Burnley and in the FA Cup against Brighton.
