Ruben Amorim has declared that Benjamin Sesko is ready to make his Manchester United debut against Arsenal but has warned his new £200m strike force that they face a fight for their places in his revamped team. Sesko completed his £66.5m move from RB Leipzig on Saturday but arrived too late to feature in any of United’s pre-season games.

Ruben Amorim’s men concluded a positive rehearsal for the 2025-26 campaign with a 1-1 draw and 5-4 penalty shootout victory against Fiorentina at Old Trafford. Much has changed for the club – on and off the pitch – since Amorim said “the good days are coming” in late May.
