Man Utd started the summer with a goal of signing Harry Kane for £100 million.
Victor Osimhen of Napoli was their second target, but Tottenham refused to negotiate and he turned out to be too pricey.
The 24-year-old Nigerian striker was being sought by the reigning Italian champions for £150 million.
20-year-old Dane Hojlund scored nine goals in 32 Serie A games and ten goals in 34 games across all competitions last season.
Due to Financial Fair Play regulations, United is in financial trouble after spending £55 million for midfielder Mason Mount.
Since David de Gea’s contract is up and he is not desired by manager Erik ten Hag, it leaves them with just £65 million to spend on a new goalkeeper and striker.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s current club, Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, has been widely connected to the Spaniard.
Meanwhile, Anthony Martial is struggling and is frequently injured, so United needs a new forward.
The team is currently considering bids for the Frenchman.
Additionally, Harry Maguire, Scott McTominay, and Martial are top priorities for United.
Ten Hag is also optimistic that they can get Fulham to pay £15 million for midfielder Fred.
Atalanta turned down Man Utd’s initial bid of £ 31 million for Rasmus Hojlund, a striker.However, the 20-year-old Danish striker is now viewed by the “Red Devils” as a crucial component that cannot be overlooked, and they will continue to pay the price.
Man Utd is working to rapidly resolve the Hojlund matter.
According to a Daily Express source, Manchester United will make a return in the Hojlund deal and is prepared to spend up to £40 million to persuade the Italian team to release players.Man Utd didn’t think twice to declare their wish to sign this talented striker to help the team’s growth while enhancing the coaching staff under coach Ten Hag.
According to Daily Express journalist Ryan Taylor, the Dutch military chief was so close to Hojlund that they even had private discussions.The way Ten Hag handled Hojlund’s relocation might have been quite beneficial.
Man Utd will easily deal with Atalanta if Rasmus Hojlund personally encourages the two sides to reach a settlement.The assessment indicates that Atalanta is likely to accept Man Utd’s second offer for Hojlund.It only cost this Italian team 14.6 million pounds to welcome Hojlund from Sturm Graz last summer.
Rasmus Hojlund, on the other hand, is reportedly thrilled about the idea of joining Manchester United.Eriksen’s younger striker for Denmark has six goals in six games.Hojlund also scored 10 goals for Atalanta while wearing the club uniform in his debut season of play at the age of 20.
Erik Ten Hag, a coach, as well as the manucians were impatient as the transfer window neared July.Man Utd currently considers having Mason Mount, which is obviously insufficient in the context of intense shopping rivals (the homepage has not made an official declaration).
The Old Trafford crew also has a very tight budget.The Manchester Evening News claims that after paying Mason Mount a surcharge of up to £60 million and investing £55 million ahead, Manchester United has only £65 million left over in its budget to hire more employees and uphold the Law of Financial Fairness. main.
Meanwhile, Man Utd could no longer afford star forwards.PSG offered 190 million pounds for Kylian Mbappe, which may be more than most people can imagine for a wage.Victor Osimhen was offered £170 million by Napoli, but Harry Kane is virtually untouchable with the “Red Devils.”
