Benjamin Sesko has adjusted to Premier League pressure, 'really loves' Man Utd now

Pressure has been a defining part of Benjamin Sesko's Manchester United experience, but the striker now feels settled in and is enjoying his time at the club.

He initially struggled for form under former boss Ruben Amorim as he adjusted to the Premier League's intensity, which he regards as the best league, demanding quicker thinking and movement.

His performances improved following Michael Carrick's arrival. During the 2025/26 season he dealt with injuries but still made contributions, scoring 11 Premier League goals in 30 appearances.

He insists that he embraces the expectation to score and win titles, and has quickly developed a strong emotional attachment to the club.

"The hardest challenge here was adapting to the league. It's the best league and the speed of everything; each game helped me think faster and move faster," Sesko told GIVEMESPORT.

"I enjoy pressure. If you have pressure, it means you are doing something good. As the striker of Manchester United, obviously people want goals and that's why I'm here. I came here to score goals and win titles with this club.

"I look at this badge and I really feel it. I really love this club now. It was very emotional for me."
