Live from Sky Sports and confirmed by Fabrizio Romano – Manchester United are on the verge of pulling off one of the biggest transfer coups of the summer. The Red Devils are finalizing deals to sign Paris Saint-Germain’s world-class goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma and RB Leipzig’s lethal striker Benjamin Sesko in a combined package worth £115 million.
According to Romano, both players have agreed in principle to five-year contracts at Old Trafford. Donnarumma’s fee is set at around £50 million, while Sesko’s deal is expected to reach £65 million. The two stars are preparing to leave their respective clubs this weekend to complete their medicals and officially sign for Manchester United before the new Premier League campaign kicks off.
This double signing signals a dramatic statement of intent from United’s hierarchy and head coach Ruben Amorim, who has been vocal about rebuilding the squad into a title-challenging machine. Donnarumma, widely regarded as one of the best goalkeepers in the world, will instantly bring stability and elite shot-stopping ability to a position that has been under intense scrutiny in recent seasons.
Benjamin Sesko, meanwhile, is seen as the striker to lead United’s attack for years to come. His combination of pace, power, and clinical finishing has drawn comparisons to Erling Haaland, and pairing him alongside Rasmus Højlund gives the Red Devils a frightening young strike force. Sources close to the club say Amorim personally pushed for Sesko’s signing, believing the 22-year-old is the “missing piece” of United’s frontline.
The news has sent Manchester United fans into meltdown across social media. Supporters are calling the potential double swoop “a dream come true” and “the moment Old Trafford rises again.” One fan wrote: “Donnarumma and Sesko in one weekend? We are fully ready for the Premier League now!” Another added: “This is the ambition we’ve been begging for. United are back.”
Negotiations with PSG and Leipzig have been ongoing for weeks, with United working quietly behind the scenes to secure both deals simultaneously. Sky Sports reports that the contracts include performance-related bonuses and long-term clauses to protect United’s investment.
For Donnarumma, the move represents a new challenge after dominating Ligue 1 with PSG and winning Euro 2020 with Italy. At 26, he is entering his prime years and has the chance to establish himself as a Premier League legend. Sesko’s transfer, on the other hand, underlines United’s commitment to building for the future while also competing now.
With both players expected to arrive in Manchester within days, the atmosphere around Old Trafford has shifted dramatically. After years of inconsistency and frustration in the transfer market, United fans are seeing a vision of ambition and clarity under the new regime.
Fabrizio Romano summed it up perfectly: “Manchester United are moving with power this summer. Donnarumma and Sesko to Old Trafford – here we go soon.”
If these deals are completed as expected this weekend, the message to the Premier League is clear: Manchester United are coming back to dominate, and with Donnarumma guarding the net and Sesko leading the line, the Red Devils look fully armed for a new era.
