Newcastle United target Benjamin Sesko was the standout performer for RB Salzburg as they defeated Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool in a pre-season friendly in Austria. The Slovenian's agent was on Tyneside last week which sparked a frenzy of transfer speculation online.
It's no secret that the Magpies are looking to bolster their front line this summer, with concerns over Callum Wilson's injury woes and Chris Wood struggling to find the back of the net since arriving from Burnley. The public pursuit of Hugo Ekitike has been well documented and PSG have pipped the Toon to his signature.
Sesko is being tipped to follow in the footsteps of Erling Haaland - having followed a similar career path - but the young striker insists that those comparisons aren't added pressure. It's clear the youngster has faith in his own ability and that came to the fore in last night's win over the Reds.
