Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko has shown a brilliant attitude on and off the pitch in his debut season at Old Trafford.
There have been clear signs that Benjamin Sesko is an upgrade on Rasmus Hojlund for Manchester United.
Sesko has shown an “elite” mentality at Carrington, including a willingness to learn and absorb knowledge from those around him.
Interestingly, the Slovenian striker has struck up a close bond with club captain Bruno Fernandes.
Have you been convinced by Sesko like Carrick has?
He's in amazing form, but what else does he need to add?
Benjamin Sesko is absorbing knowledge from Bruno Fernandes
Earlier this week, Sesko explained how Fernandes helps him in training by giving out constant instructions before and after sessions.
“Every single training, after training, sometimes before training. Whatever he tells you, just do it, don’t think twice. And that’s what I said. I’m really grateful to have this opportunity to be around him,” Benjamin Sesko said.
Fernandes has spoken highly of Sesko as a player and teammate, pointing out his desire to improve.
During matches, Fernandes can often be spotted barking instructions to Sesko, and it has clearly had an impact on his performances with the Slovenian overcoming a slow start to now have 10 goals to his name.
The way that Sesko has shown a desire to learn and improve is something that Cristiano Ronaldo would approve of after he did the same himself at Old Trafford.
How do you predict Benjamin Sesko’s career at Manchester United will go?
It's early – but let's see your predictions!
Cristiano Ronaldo admires Benjamin Sesko mentality
During his second spell at United, Ronaldo lashed out at younger players at the club, suggesting they had no desire to improve or listen to senior players.
“This new generation don’t accept that if you criticise them. I have kids I know. They do the opposite,” Ronaldo said.
However, Sesko has done exactly what Ronaldo did in his position when he first moved to Manchester in 2003.
Ronaldo learned from United’s legends and went on to become the best player in the world.
“The goal isn’t to imitate but to take aspects from those who are the best and adapt it to your own personality. That’s what I did. I had some talent and I watched them,” Ronaldo said.
At 22 years old, Sesko is following his blueprint.
