And the Slovenian sounds like a model professional, albeit with a big appetite to match his 6ft 5in frame.
According to an article about player nutrition published on the Leipzig website, Sesko's typical daily menu focuses on healthy protein, in the form of chicken, fish and dairy products, healthy carbs and lots of fruit and veg.
His breakfast consists of FOUR fried eggs, yoghurt with berries, muesli and freshly-squeezed fruit juice.
For lunch, Sesko has chicken, rice and mixed vegetables, including carrots and broccoli, with two slices of bread, followed by a fruit salad featuring mango, watermelon and pineapple.

After the second training session of the day, the frontman refuels with a protein shake, a couple of energy balls and a muesli ball.
And there's no let-up on the good habits when it comes to dinner.
Sesko has salmon with mashed potatoes and a tomato and cucumber salad.
And that's before finishing the day with yet more muesli, this time livened up with some quark cheese, cashew nuts, kiwi fruit and blueberries.

The striker is certainly getting his five a day.
Which is one more than the number of goals Rasmus Hojlund scored for Man Utd in the Premier League last season.
Chefs at United's Carrington training ground will seemingly be the ones catering to Sesko's dietary requirements.
The Red Devils have stolen a march on Newcastle in the race for the 22-year-old.
United gazumped the Magpies' £70million offer with a £74m bid, which Leipzig have yet to accept.
Sesko, however, is understood to prefer a move to Old Trafford over a transfer to St James' Park.

Aston Villa given fitness boost for key man ahead of Premier League opener against Newcastle
Aston Villa are increasingly hopeful that Morgan Rogers will be fit for Saturday's Premier League opener against Newcastle. The forward, a contender for the PFA Young Player of the Year award, damaged his ankle in a pre-season friendly against Roma on August 6 and did not feature in the preparation games against Marseille and Villarreal. But Rogers has been involved in training this week and confidence is growing that he will be ready for the clash with Eddie Howe 's team at Villa Park. Rogers, 23, was one of the breakout stars of the last Premier League campaign, hitting double figures for goals and assists in all competitions, and breaking into the senior England squad. Aston Villa are hopeful Morgan Rogers will be fit for Saturday's Premier League opener against Newcastle He signed a new deal with Villa less than a year ago but his progress has been so rapid that the club are expected to offer him improved terms in the coming weeks, as first revealed by Daily Mail Sport on July 21. Villa have been relatively quiet in the market this summer, though they remain in talks to sell homegrown midfielder Jacob Ramsey to Newcastle for about £40million, after Villa brought in Evann Guessand from Nice for about £28m to bolster their attack. Instead, the focus has been on securing the futures of their key players, with Boubacar Kamara and Lucas Digne signing new deals and others, including Youri Tielemans and John McGinn, expected to follow. Villa are also looking at a deal to bring back Marco Asensio, who spent the second half of last season at the club on loan from Paris Saint-Germain.

Wrexham SHATTER transfer record for £10m signing that has fans questioning Ryan Reynolds
Wrexham are set to break their transfer record with a £10m move for Ipswich's Nathan Broadhead, sparking fan debate over spending by the club's Hollywood owners Wrexham have been given the go ahead to smash their transfer record by completing a £10million deal for Nathan Broadhead. The Red Dragons have been chasing the signing of the Ipswich Town winger for the last few weeks. The 27-year-old Wales international was understood to be keen on making a return to the Welsh side, where he started his career in the club's youth academy. It was previously reported that a fee of £7.5m had been agreed. However, the move was held up by Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna due to a series of injuries plus transfer interest in other attacking players. That changed when the Tractor Boys completed the loan signing of Chuba Akpom from Ajax on Sunday. Championship new boys Wrexham have now been given the green light to complete the purchase of Broadhead after upping their offer to £10m, as per Sky Sports News. The player is believed to be on his way to his native home of North Wales to undergo a medical. Once finalised, Broadhead will become Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson 's ninth summer signing after receiving strong backing from the club's Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. It will be the third time Wrexham have broken their transfer record this summer after initially forking out £2.1m for Empoli left-back Liberato Cacace. The acquisition of Nottingham Forest midfielder Lewis O'Brien then surpassed that figure after costing around double that amount. The arrival of Broadhead will eclipse that again in what will be viewed as a statement of intent in many quarters. But some Wrexham fans aren't convinced and have questioned the hefty outlay by the owners at a time when the club still doesn't have a permanent training ground. Writing on X, one supporter said: "I really don't want to be negative here but it's been over 4 years since the take over and we've still not bought any land for a training ground. These signings are unbelievable but long term success will be slowed down if we continue to not have our own base." A second fan posted: "I'm going to be controversial here but that is ridiculous. Yes, he is Welsh and a former youth player but that can't justify that price. If we can't find a better striker for £10m then we need to look at our recruitment." A third added: "Not my money etc etc but £10m for Broadhead? Mmm okay." Meanwhile, another said: "I'm not sure I can be comfortable with us making a £10m signing." Broadhead joined Ipswich from Everton for £1.5m in January 2023. He played a key role in the Tractor Boys' back-to-back promotions from League One and the Championship, before being restricted to just seven Premier League starts last season as the club was relegated back down to the second tier. Broadhead has bagged 23 goals in 83 appearances for Ipswich, but recently entered the final year of his contract. He missed his club's Carabao Cup clash at Bromley on Tuesday after reporting in sick on the day of the game. His move to Wrexham comes as they prepare to take on West Brom in their first league home game of the season on Saturday. Parkinson's side lost their opening game away at Southampton 2-1 following a late collapse after being ahead for most of the match.
