Man United explore shock move for 14-cap England international amid Benjamin Sesko injury blow

United exploring a move for Leeds forward Calvert-Lewin as cover for injured Sesko, though a deal looks unlikely given Leeds' reluctance to sell.

Manchester United are considering a January move for Leeds United forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin after Benjamin Sesko suffered a shin injury that will sideline him until at least January.

Calvert-Lewin, a 14-cap England international, joined Leeds as a free agent last summer and has scored five goals in all competitions this season, including four in the Premier League. The 29-year-old has started eight of Leeds' ten Premier League and Carabao Cup fixtures.

However, a deal appears unlikely. Leeds are keen to keep Calvert-Lewin and are offering him a new long-term contract, with his current deal running until 2028. The historic rivalry between the clubs also complicates any potential move.
