Sesko’s agent confirms previous Milan talks and teases about the future: “You never know”

Benjamin Sesko’s agent has confirmed that he has held previous talks over a move to AC Milan and he also failed to rule out the possibility of more discussions in the future.

The Milan management are continuing to look for a new number nine for the attack of the future and a significant economic investment is expected in the role, given that one was not made over the summer.

Calciomercato.com among other sources have claimed that the management are keeping a close eye on Sesko who has six goals and 12 games for RB Leipzig across all competitions so far this season since his move from Red Bull Salzburg.

Milan were linked with the Slovenia international while he was at Salzburg and when Paolo Maldini was the director, but Red Bull had already made the decision to send him to Leipzig, it seemed.

Sesko’s agent Elvis Basanovic spoke during an interview with Sportitalia and he was asked if it was true that there were previous talks with Milan and also about the potential of a future move.

“I can confirm that I spoke with Milan in the past about Sesko when Maldini was there. However in that moment a transfer wasn’t possible, it was not the right time,” he said (via MilanEye).

“You never know in the future, Milan is a big club. Sesko feels very good now at Leipzig where he continues to grow.”
