Manchester United is planning a new approach to get Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta during the summer transfer window.
According to an exclusive report by Alfredo Pedulla, Manchester United could make an offer of £51.7 million (with add-ons) to entice the 20-year-old attacker.
The Serie A club wants at least a fixed amount of £51.7m plus other objectives to sell their finest asset, according to the famous Italian journalist.
According to reports, the gap is closing, therefore the talks will continue as the Red Devils try harder to sign Hojlund.
In terms of the player’s preference, he has stated his desire to move to Old Trafford. However, the youngster respects Atalanta and does not want to jeopardize their friendship.
Since going to Italy, the Danish international has only scored 10 goals and contributed four assists in 34 appearances for the Bergamo side, despite having six goals in as many games for his country.
Erik ten Hag requires a proven quality No.9 to compete for the Premier League crown with Manchester City and Arsenal.
Robin van Persie was the last player to earn the Premier League Golden Boot for Manchester United, who went on to win the league in 2012-13.
Since then, no United player has scored 20 or more goals in a single league season. Do you believe Rasmus Hojlund has what it takes to fix Manchester United’s strike-force conundrum?
