<p>According to<a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/36104145/man-utd-files-amorim-sesko-transfers/" target="_blank"> <em>The Sun,</em></a><em> </em>Sesko's potential switch to Old Trafford is <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/plan-to-stay-rasmus-hojlund-vows-fight-man-utd-spot-danish-striker-welcomes-potential-competition-benjamin-sesko/blt64e770d47bf0ff23#cs3a32f5899e898cf9" target="_blank">not viewed as a replacement for Hojlund.</a> Instead, Amorim sees this acquisition as an opportunity to enhance his squad’s firepower and bring the best out of both young forwards.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>It has been stressed that Hojlund remains an integral part of the team’s future, particularly after his recent standout performance in the 4-1 pre-season victory over Bournemouth at Soldier Field, where he scored twice. He is expected to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/ruben-amorim-admits-unsure-rasmus-hojlund-future-man-utd-pursuit-benjamin-sesko-despite-danish-striker-scoring-pre-season-rout-bournemouth/bltd67711a63219fe5d" target="_blank">thrive alongside Sesko,</a> with Amorim believing that genuine competition for the striker role could serve as a powerful motivator for the 22-year-old.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Amorim's confidence stems in part from his track record of nurturing rising stars into prolific attackers. While at Sporting Lisbon, he transformed Viktor Gyokeres into a clinical and dominant presence up front. The Portuguese coach now sees a similar opportunity with Sesko. Standing at 6ft 5in, the 21-year-old has the physical tools and raw ability that Amorim believes <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/patrick-dorgu-premier-league-ramsus-hojlund-manchester-united-win-over-bournemouth-in-chicago/blt7746c709779325e9" target="_blank">he can sharpen into a lethal offensive weapon for United.</a></p>

TELL ME MORE

<p>Amorim views Sesko as the explosive element currently lacking in United’s forward line. The Slovenian’s blend of size, athleticism, and technical ability fits perfectly into Amorim’s tactical plans for a more dynamic, multi-dimensional attacking system. At the same time, the Portuguese boss sees the new arrival as a catalyst that will help Hojlund push past the mental hurdles that affected his consistency last season.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Far from creating a rift, Amorim anticipates that this internal rivalry will yield benefits for both players and the club. His strategy is to foster an environment where no position is guaranteed, compelling every player to prove their worth on the pitch. For Hojlund, this means stepping up his game and embracing the pressure to keep pace with his teammates. United’s preparations for the upcoming campaign continue as the squad moves on to face Everton in Atlanta in their next pre-season fixture.</p>
