  Manchester United are signing Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig for £65m plus add-ons. We analyze his promising numbers and the all-round threat he will bring to Old Trafford.

Eintracht Frankfurt have lost both of their competitive meetings against RB Leipzig this season (3-0 away in the DFB-Pokal and 2-1 away in the Bundesliga).
