Former frontrunners Newcastle have slipped behind the Red Devils in the market to sign the Slovenian forward, drifting out to 3/1 from 8/15 in recent days.
With ambitions of progressing in the Champions League, Šeško could have been the long-term replacement for Alexander Isak should the Swede depart this summer.
Chelsea are the next closest competitors for Šeško’s signature, given Nicolas Jackson’s uncertain future at Stamford Bridge, but are a distant third in the pursuit of the highly-rated goalscorer, priced at 20/1.

Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: “Rumours of Benjamin Šeško’s departure from RB Leipzig have slowly gathered momentum throughout the summer transfer window and the forward now looks closer than ever to leaving the Bundesliga, with Manchester United emerging as frontrunners to secure Šeško’s services at odds of 2/9.
“Newcastle were the previous favourites to sign Šeško and were as short as 8/15 to get the deal done, but developments in the last few days have meant the Magpies have drifted out to 3/1, leaving Old Trafford chiefs in pole position.
“As the transfer merry-go-round continues, Newcastle have shifted their attentions to Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson – the Magpies now lead the race for the out-of-favour frontman at 3/1, overtaking Man Utd, who find themselves at 5/1 to sign the Blues ace.”
