With the Premier League opener against Arsenal just days away, Manchester United have wasted no time diving back into serious preparations at Carrington.
The Red Devils’ pre-season wrapped up on a high note last weekend with a penalty shootout victory over Fiorentina, a match that ended 1-1 in regular time and secured the Snapdragon Cup on home soil.
Confidence is building within the squad as the team shifts focus entirely to the season ahead, with Ruben Amorim now busy finalising his tactics and line-up for the crucial curtain-raiser at Old Trafford.
Training sessions have been buzzing with energy as new arrivals integrate into the squad ahead of the big kick-off.
The atmosphere was particularly electric on Monday when United’s latest signing, Benjamin Sesko, took part in his first training session since completing his high-profile move from Bundesliga club RB Leipzig.
The Slovenian forward’s arrival adds fresh firepower to a United attack keen to make an impact this season.
Manchester United shared photos, via the clubs official website, showing Benjamin Sesko beaming during his first training session with the team.
Sesko’s signing was celebrated before the Fiorentina friendly, alongside fellow new recruits Matheus Cunha, Diego Leon and Bryan Mbeumo.
All four newcomers are now fully embedded in the squad and ready to stake their claim for places in the starting XI.
Sesko’s presence in training has already given fans and coaching staff a glimpse of the talent and potential he brings to the Theatre of Dreams.
With Sesko expected to be available for selection against Arsenal this Sunday, Amorim faces decisions that could shape the campaign’s early momentum.
The Slovenian’s adaptation to English football and integration into the team’s style will be closely watched, as United look to start the season strongly on home turf.
As the countdown continues, the buzz at Carrington is palpable – a fresh chapter is unfolding, and Benjamin Sesko’s first steps in training mark a promising new beginning for Manchester United’s 2025/26 journey.
