A clear picture emerges as Zlatan Ibrahimovic talks about Benjamin Sesko following the striker's improved form at Manchester United, highlighting three shared qualities.
On 11 Mar 2026 GMT+7, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the former renowned Swedish striker, spoke about Slovenian forward Benjamin Sesko after his form started to improve with the Premier League's Manchester United. He pointed out three similarities between them.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic said, "I've watched Benjamin Sesko play football and it reminds me of myself. Usually, I don't compare myself to other players, but this one is an exception because his dribbling, teamwork, and physical strength are very similar to mine. However, what he still lacks to become a great striker is the kind of courage that Zlatan Ibrahimovic has. I want him to have that as well."
Benjamin Sesko transferred from RB Leipzig to Old Trafford last summer for a total fee including options of €85 million, approximately 3.112 billion baht. So far, he has played 26 matches in all competitions, scoring 9 goals and providing 1 assist.
