It’s almost time for the World Cup…are you ready?
Former Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino was a little surprised when he first saw the rumors linking Harry Kane to Bayern Munich. As the noise continued to get louder and more and more stories started to arise detailing the possibility, Pochettino became even more confused.
Why? Because Pochettino can really only see Kane leaving England for Real Madrid.
“Harry Kane to Bayern? That would only happen if Harry changed his way of thinking, which I don’t believe he will. He’s very attached to England and his country. He wants to be the Premier League’s all-time top scorer. That’s his goal,” Pochettino told SZ (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). “I always saw him as a player who would go to a club like Real Madrid if he ever left England.”

Bayern Munich is on break, but its 17 players (16 now with Sadio Mané officially on the shelf) who were called to their international teams for the World Cup certainly are not. There will be a ton of activity for the Bayern boys as the tournament in Qatar is set to kickoff.
What does that mean? There is still plenty to talk about with both the German national team and with Bayern Munich. Predictions, transfer talk, a deep dive into the decision-making of a phenom, and more!
Let’s get right to it and see what we have on tap for this episode:

Red Bull Salzburg striker Benjamin Sesko is moving to RB Leipzig next summer, but Real Madrid and Manchester United are reportedly already interested in grabbing the Slovenian:
Despite the fact that Vinicius continues on the path marked out last year and Rodrygo and Fede Valverde have improved their goalscoring records, the need to add a new striker is evident. And everything indicates that the different options offered by the market to strengthen themselves are being evaluated from the club’s offices.
In this circumstance, one of the names that has returned to the scene and that Central Defense echoes is Benjamin Sesko. The 19-year-old Slovenian striker will trade Salzburg for Leipzig next summer in exchange for €24M after a start to the season in which he racked up 7 goals and 3 assists in 25 games.
Already nicknamed the “new Haaland”, the striker is also showing his qualities in his team, with whom he has scored 5 times in 16 games. Thus, the aforementioned source states that Real Madrid will closely follow Sesko’s developments during the coming season in Germany in order to assess whether he is an interesting player to join their project in the future.
In addition, 90Min.com captured a report from Dean Jones stating that Manchester United is also keeping a very close eye on Sesko:
