He's Undoubtedly the BEST.." Ruben Amorim Finds Benjamin Sesko Replacement Amid Injury Woes

Manchester United rescued a point against Tottenham Hotspur in their previous match in the Premier League after Matthijs De Ligt equalized for the Red Devils in the last minute. Tottenham were trailing for most of the game but managed to come back through strikes from Mathys Tel and Richarlison. United fought hard, but their defense gave up in the most crucial moment of the match. The Red Devils have conceded a lot of goals this season, which raises concerns over their defense. However, there has been a bigger concern, which shook up their attacking line too.

Benjamin Sesko Injured against Tottenham

Slovenian striker Benjamin Sesko came onto the field in the 58th minute but was substituted in the 88th minute after coming off worse from Micky van de Ven's tackle when he was one-on-one with Vicario. Sesko struggled to get up and was treated on the field by the medics, but he made it clear that he was unable to continue. The forward was barely able to walk and was seen limping off the field before heading straight down the tunnel. His injury leaves United without a proper no. 9 up front, something that might worry United for quite some time now. The extent of Benjamin Sesko injury is not known yet, as Ruben Amorim has said that Sesko has taken a hit on his knee, but further updates on his situation are pending. He also acknowledged that Benjamin Sesko injury does make things complicated for United, but they need to work on it together while moving forward.

Amorim finds Sesko Replacement Amid Injury Woes

Meanwhile, if reports are to be believed, Ruben Amorim has found his Benjamin Sesko replacement. The Portuguese manager is a big fan of Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins and wants him at the club in the January transfer window. With Hojlund on loan at Napoli and Mason Mount not being a proper no. 9, Ruben Amorim feels that Ollie Watkins would fit the bill perfectly.

However, it will be interesting to see if Aston Villa lets their star man go so easily. Benjamin Sesko injury might have opened doors for a new striker signing, but it is yet to be seen who Amorim feels will add value to the team, and at this point it seems that Watkins is the favourite to be recruited among several other elite strikers in the world right now.
