TA confirms: Sheshko s team expressed their willingness to go to Newcastle. After Newcastle s offer, they changed their minds and chose Manchester United.

Hupu August 10th TheAthleticUK Manchester United team wrote an op-ed article to decipher Sheshko's transfer.

(The following are the details after the official negotiations are officially started)

[Must board] TA: When negotiating with Arsenal, the team that does not want to go to the European Cup has been in contact with Sheshko's team and designated Sheshko as a potential replacement for Isak's departure. When Isaac asked not to play in the Tour and the possibility of his departure this summer increased significantly, Newcastle executives began to consider transfers.

Arsenal's pursuit has had an impact, and Newcastle United's core figure believes that if Arsenal regards Sheshko as a key goal, then as a team that is also a Champions League team, they should also compete.

This summer, Newcastle United has competed with their Champions League rivals Chelsea for Drapp and Joao Pedro.

Newcastle United's involvement prompted Manchester United to take action, which led to a meeting between Amorin, Berrada and Wilcox in Chicago and gave both clubs the opportunity to recommend to Sheshko's team.

Last week, Amorin held a Zoom meeting with Sheshko, while football negotiating director Matt Hargreaves met with Sheshko's agent Elvis Barsanovic several times to conduct preliminary negotiations on personal terms and commission fees. In terms of

Newcastle, besides Isaac, there are other complex factors. With no sporting director or CEO, this means that hiring director Steve Nixon deals with Sheshko's team, while assistant hiring director Andy Howe and minority shareholder Jamie Ruben handle the negotiations with the Red Bull Club in Leipzig.

Although Newcastle and Sheshko teams did not eventually reach a final agreement, it is optimistic that preliminary negotiations between them are going well. Sesco's representative informed both parties that they had not made a decision and that time would take into account their respective options.

More meetings were held on Friday. In the next 24 hours, Newcastle United submitted a €75 million offer to Red Bull Leipzig, plus an additional terms of €5 million.

Sheshko's team was shocked by the timing of the Newcastle United's offer, as it did not fit their planning process.

This may be because Newcastle United suspects that the Sheshko team is delaying and waiting for Manchester United to prepare to make a formal offer.

Barsanovic flew from Oxford to Leipzig on Saturday afternoon after he had completed a loan from another client to Oxford United. The two sides held talks that night after the pre-season friendly match between Bundesliga club and Atlanta. Given the importance of Shezko as a client of Barsanovic, an industry insider called him "the lifelong effort" of Barsanovic.

Newcastle United's offer was considered insufficient by the Bundesliga club, but it was not immediately rejected and negotiations continued.

Some people familiar with the matter believe that the 85 million euro offer from Newcastle United is in line with Leipzig's valuation, and the two sides could have reached a deal quickly, but Manchester United's intervention changed the direction of the negotiations.

However, Manchester United executives still have not submitted preliminary offers as they are waiting for Sheshko's agent to make it clear that they are his preferred destination.

People who understand Manchester United's negotiation strategy said they hope Sheshko will make it clear to the club that he only wants to transfer to Old Trafford, paving the way for price negotiations without competitor pressure.

In the end, Newcastle United received encouragement from the Sheshko camp and expressed his willingness to join. The negotiations on Monday were very positive - on the same day, Ruben went all out to fight for the deal - Newcastle offered a offer of at least €80 million. In their words, they have done their best.

However, Manchester United remains confident. Executives believe that if Sheshko preferred Newcastle United, the deal with Newcastle United would have been completed long ago.

Manchester United initially made an offer of €75 million plus €10 million additional terms, which were finally submitted on Tuesday morning.

Later that day, Newcastle United and Leipzig reached an additional clause of 82.5 million euros of initial transfer fee plus 2.5 million euros. However, over time, all parties have clarified Sheshko's wishes - he wants to join Manchester United.
