Benjamin Sesko is a man in question, in which both Manchester United and Newcastle United are interested in the RB Leipzig striker, while his girlfriend would like to know where his future lies
Benjamin Sesko has been a serious target for a few Premier League teams this summer, including Manchester United and Newcastle. In the meantime, his girlfriend, Anita Vidovic, has also attracted the attention of fans, especially since she has been his senior for five years.
Sesko has been a striking player for RB Leipzig and scored an impressive 21 goals in all competitions in the 2024/25 season. Despite the matte performance of the Bundesliga team, which ended them outside the top four, the Slovenian international remained a consistent force on the field.
Ruben Amorim and the hierarchy of United have noticed the bravery of Sesko, but they are not the only ones. Newcastle also wants to secure the services of Sesko, especially since Alexander Isak now wants to explore other transfer options this summer.
After extended his contract until 2029 last summer, Sesko will probably take some time to decide his next step. A person he will probably turn for advice is his girlfriend, Anita Vidovic.
Cosmopolitan report The 27-year-old is originally from Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia, and graduated from the Faculty of Public Administration.
Anita is no stranger to the world of football. Her brother Boris has made 25 professional performances in Germany and the lower competitions of Poland and plays for teams such as TSV Bicken and Ritzing.
The 28-year-old hung up his boots in 2024 and has since ventured into reality television, with Love Island in Series 12 as a Casa Amor Bombshell. Although it remains unconfirmed, it is likely that the older Vidovic Sesko supports the same way as his sister, who regularly appears on social media's football shirt.
De Leipzig -striker rarely shares messages about his partner on his social platforms, reducing the performances of Anita to occasional Instagram Grid Post. On the other hand, the 27-year-old WAG often shows the romantic side of her husband to her tap.
Anita collects around 20,000 views per clip and reveals the affectionate acts of Sesko for birthdays, anniversaries and other memorable moments. Videos of the duo dancing, sharing warm hugs and traveling the world together filling her food, next to her cheering on the attacker of the stands at Leipzig.

Images show that Sesko plays with a young lion cub, who demonstrates his skills on the Driving Range, enjoying a basketball game and dancing on board a boat with his girlfriend.
United supporters will hope that Anita will convince her partner to choose the Red Devils above other possible Premier League clubs, but it seems that her influence may not be required.
Sesko is said to be impressed by the strategy of United and their eagerness to close a deal. It is suggested that he received concrete figures about what he could earn and bring to Amorim's vision.
It has been reported that Sesko and Leipzig have a 'men's agreement', which suggests that the 22-year-old could leave for a 'special club'. Given their rich history and trophy trait, United certainly fits into the bill.
Given the Carabao Cup-winning side of Eddie Howe, however, is also interested in Sesko, their ability to offer Champions League football could seduce the Slovenian star.
With other clubs that Sesko have the eye, it seems that Amorim and the top of United have to act quickly to secure the attacker. Ollie Watkins from Aston Villa, however, is another player on the Radar of United, indicating that it will not be a case to sign both.
