“HE IS A GOAL MACHINE – BETTER THAN SESKO, A HYBRID OF HAALAND AND KANE!”
BREAKING NEWS: Manchester United owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has reportedly exploded in frustration after watching one of the club’s former strikers turn into a world-class goal machine right before his very eyes. The shocking revelation comes after the player – sold for a mere £30 million back in 2022 – has now hit 37 goals in just 22 matches, including a ruthless hat-trick in just 62 minutes last week.
According to Ratcliffe, this decision could go down as one of the worst transfer mistakes in United’s modern history. He pointed fingers at manager Ruben Amorim, accusing him of greenlighting a careless exit that has now come back to haunt the Red Devils. The player, whose identity remains a stinging reminder to United fans, is being described as a perfect hybrid of Erling Haaland’s physical dominance and Harry Kane’s intelligent finishing.
> “We regret selling him out so cheaply,” Ratcliffe is quoted as saying. “This boy has become unstoppable. He is even outperforming Benjamin Sesko, the £95m striker we thought would be our future. Right now, he’s better than Mbeumo, better than most of our squad.”
The numbers are undeniable. Since leaving Old Trafford, this striker has gone on a rampage, tearing apart defenses across Europe. His sharp movements in the box, lethal finishing with both feet, and aerial dominance have made him a nightmare for defenders. Scouts and analysts now openly debate whether United may have lost a potential Ballon d’Or candidate for a bargain-bin fee.
Meanwhile, fans are furious. Social media exploded after his most recent hat-trick, with many accusing Amorim of repeating the same mistakes previous managers made – failing to recognize talent until it’s too late. Supporters point out how United have spent close to £300m on attackers in recent seasons, yet none of them can match the consistency or numbers of the player they let go for peanuts.
To make matters worse, the forward’s rise has coincided with Benjamin Sesko’s underwhelming start at Old Trafford. Despite arriving with big hype, the Slovenian has been outscored by this “forgotten striker” week after week, raising serious questions about the club’s recruitment model under INEOS.
As things stand, Manchester United may have just created another “Paul Pogba situation” – letting go of a young player too soon, only to watch him explode into superstardom elsewhere. Ratcliffe’s words capture the growing fear among fans: have United sold the wrong man at the wrong time, again?
What is certain is this – the decision has already entered United’s long list of transfer regrets, and unless Sesko finds form soon, comparisons will only intensify. The player United once discarded is now being called Europe’s most lethal striker, and the Old Trafford faithful are left asking one painful question: “Why did we ever let him go?”
