Man Utd have been told to approach Chelsea (Picture: Getty) Quinton Fortune has urged Manchester United to sign a new striker before the summer transfer window closes to support Benjamin Sesko and believes a Chelsea player could be the answer. Sesko endured a mixed first season at Old Trafford following his £73m move from RB Leipzig last summer, scoring 12 goals in 32 appearances. The Slovenia international endured a poor first-half to the campaign but improved after Michael Carrick replaced Ruben Amorim in the United hot-seat. Whether Sesko is the long-term answer for Manchester United remains to be seen, with Michael Owen recently admitting he had ‘doubts’ that will prove to be the case. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. Ex-United defender Fortune says Carrick ‘needs another striker’ to ‘push for the Premier League and play in the Champions League’ and has named Nicolas Jackson as an ‘option’. Jackson is being linked with a permanent move away from Chelsea after spending last season on loan at Bayern Munich. Aston Villa and Newcastle United have both made approaches for the Senegal international, who Chelsea value at £65m, and Fortune believes Manchester United should also consider a move. Current Man Utd striker Benjamin Sesko (Picture: Getty) ‘I think United need another striker because I think Benjamin Sesko scored 12 goals last season and Bruno Fernandes got nine,’ Fortune told Premier Bet. ‘The team needs more but we do have to remember that Sesko is still a young player with a big responsibility coming to United and having to carry the team up front by himself. ‘In my time, we were very fortunate to have Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Teddy Sheringham, Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole. Then Ruud Van Nistelrooy came later and Wayne Rooney, and a youngster could come into the team and look up to Van Nistelrooy or Andy Cole or Dwight Yorke or Teddy Sheringham. Chelsea value Nicolas Jackson at £65m (Picture: Getty) ‘Benjamin Sesko is having to do all that himself, and what if he picks up an injury? ‘So United need another striker, and if you are pushing for the Premier League and playing in the Champions League, you need a bigger squad.’ Fortune, who won the Premier League under Sir Alex Ferguson, added: ‘Nicolas Jackson is an option for Manchester United. ‘He’s coming off his loan at Bayern Munich and keeps getting clubs so he must have something. Manchester United boss Michael Carrick (Picture: Getty) ‘I see him as more of a goal poacher. If you look at the purest of the pure footballers, he’s not a striker to bring it down and play it like Dimitar Berbatov or Wayne Rooney or Dwight Yorke but that’s what I like about him too. ‘He’s just an out-an-out striker. He doesn’t really care about anything else apart from getting into the box and getting on the end of whatever service he’s provided, and there’s nothing wrong with that. That’s still the hardest part of the game. ‘He’s almost like Erling Haaland at times and he shouldn’t get involved in the play so much. Tell the other guys they can do all the hard work and I’ll score the goals. ‘Whether he’s right for United, I don’t know about that, but you don’t play for Chelsea and Bayern Munich if you haven’t got something about you. ‘I just think United need a little bit more. I do like Nicolas Jackson but think United need the best of the best. ‘If you’re going to buy a top-top striker, you must go and buy Erling Haaland or Harry Kane. Just be absolutely ruthless. Sign the player. Get them in the box. Give me the goals. No nonsense.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page. Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Boss Sergej Jakirovic has cast doubt over whether Hull City will return with a second offer for Swansea City striker Zan Vipotnik. News emerged on Monday that Hull, who won promotion to the Premier League last season, had seen a bid for Vipotnik rejected by Swansea. Vipotnik netted 25 Swansea goals last season – including 23 in the league – and scored three times for his country.
Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand (Picture: YouTube) Rio Ferdinand says Manchester City would have pipped Arsenal to the Premier League title last season had Rodri been available for the entire campaign. Arsenal clinched their first Premier League title since 2004 back in May, finishing seven points clear of Man City in Pep Guardiola’s last season at the club. Ballon d’Or winner Rodri missed 17 Premier League games last term due to injury issues and Ferdinand believes his availability would have changed the course of the title race. Rodri now looks set to end his long and successful spell at the Etihad Stadium, with Barcelona closing in on a stunning deal for the World Cup winner. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. Ferdinand says Rodri’s imminent departure will present ‘huge challenges’ to a Manchester City team already having to cope with the exit of legendary manager Guardiola. Enzo Maresca, the former Chelsea boss, has been given the possibly tricky task of replacing Guardiola, who won six Premier League titles, the Champions League and eight domestic cups at Man City. Speaking on his podcast, Manchester United legend Ferdinand said: ‘Can we just talk about Manchester City please? Man City legend Rodri is set to join Barcelona (Picture: Getty) ‘Not only have they lost Pep Guardiola, it now looks like they’re losing Rodri. That’s two of the most important people at the football club in the last seven or eight years. ‘So after a big change in manager they’re losing the biggest, most important player in their team. ‘If Rodri started and played every game last season and didn’t have that injury, Man City win the Premier League. No disrespect to Arsenal but if Rodri played ten more games, Man City would have won the league. Arsenal pipped Man City to the Premier League title (Picture: Getty) ‘That’s no coincidence. This guy went into the Spain team and was their most important player, wins the best player of the tournament and helps them win the World Cup. He’s won the Ballon d’Or too, he’s won everything. ‘If Barcelona get him they are a certified problem this year because Rodri is the most important footballer for any team on the planet right now and has been for the last few years. He’s a top player and a top pro. ‘I think Man City have a huge challenge this year in competing in the way they have in the last eight or nine years. Former Man City boss Pep Guardiola (Picture: Getty) ‘They’ve lost two huge components of the football club, not only on the pitch but off it as well. They were both huge contributors so let’s watch this space.’ Arsenal hero Anders Limpar has also suggested Manchester City could be set for a difficult season if they sell influential midfielder Rodri. ‘If Manchester City sell Rodri they are shooting themselves in the foot because he cannot be replaced,’ Limpar told SveaCasino. ‘We said the same about David Silva but they did replace him and brought in a couple of good players, like Bernardo Silva, but it’s even harder to replace Rodri now. ‘He’s a Ballon d’Or winner because of how good he is in his role. Who are you going to replace him with? ‘City have to be very, very careful here or they can become a mediocre team that struggles to finish sixth or seventh even with Erling Haaland because Rodri is the machine. He’s the engine in that midfield. ‘It would be the best signing of the summer for Arsenal if Rodri goes to Barcelona or Real Madrid.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page.

Brimingham City boss Chris Davies believes no side will have more of the ball than Swansea City at the Swansea.com Stadium this season. Birmingham claimed a 1-0 win EFL Cup win at Swansea last weekend despite having only 38.3% of possession. Blues boss Davies, who was assistant boss at Swansea when they were promoted to the Premier League in 2011, reckons that on home turf at least, Vitor Matos' Swans will control the ball throughout 2026-27.
Former Chelsea manager Frank Lampard is reportedly eyeing up Mykhailo Mudryk as a potential loan signing for Coventry City this summer.
