Bayern Munich continues to keep a close watch on Manchester United forward Benjamin Šeško, with the German club considering him as a long-term replacement for Harry Kane.

The 23-year-old Slovenian striker concluded his first Premier League season with 12 goals across all competitions, solidifying his role in Michael Carrick's attacking lineup at Manchester United.

Harry Kane’s Changing Role at Bayern

Harry Kane remains Bayern Munich’s primary striker and is expected to renew his contract. However, his tendency to operate from deeper positions has prompted discussions within the club about recruiting a traditional centre-forward to lead the attack.

Reports indicate that head coach Vincent Kompany was previously interested in pairing Kane with Šeško during the latter’s tenure at RB Leipzig before his transfer to Old Trafford.

Transfer Window and Future Plans

  • Bayern recently bolstered their attack by signing Ismael Saibari from PSV Eindhoven.
  • No additional striker signings are expected in the current transfer window.
  • Šeško remains on Bayern's shortlist, reflecting a strategic, long-term approach to their striking options.

Any formal offer for Šeško will likely depend on how Kane’s role evolves and the club’s future offensive requirements.
