Sesko trains with United ahead of opener

Benjamin Sesko trains with Manchester United as two returning players boost options ahead of the season opener.

Sesko trains with United as double injury boost brightens opener prospects

New photos from Carrington show Benjamin Sesko training with Manchester United's first team, a sign the club plans to move him toward Premier League action after his August 9 unveiling. United describe the signing as long term depth, aiming to strengthen the squad for a busy schedule.

Back in training are Joshua Zirkzee and Andre Onana, both returning from injuries after missing pre-season. Head coach Ruben Amorim is expected to be cautious with Zirkzee given options, while Onana could go straight into the lineup for the Arsenal game.

Sesko’s arrival underlines United’s willingness to invest for the long haul, signaling ambition beyond a quick fix. The early signs suggest a plan to build a deeper, more flexible squad capable of handling a crowded fixtures list.

Injury returns offer relief and risk in equal measure. If Onana recovers quickly and Zirkzee hits form, Amorim can rotate without losing balance; if either player struggles, rotation decisions will tighten the window for Sesko’s integration and adaptation.

Fans will be watching to see how quickly the new signs translate into on pitch impact.
