Manchester United are said to be likely to suffer a major loss Rasmus Hojlund, who is available For the right price.
AC Milan and Juventus are reportedly interested in the 21-year-old, but he does not currently look like their top target, according to ESPN.
The report states that Hjlund’s signing from Atalanta cost €75m and means that the Red Devils suffered a huge loss as a result of this expensive and unsuccessful signing.
Hojlund has looked extremely promising during his time at Atalanta, but has struggled badly to play for Man Utd, and now an exit certainly makes sense for the Denmark international.
It could be that Hojlund’s previous impressive form in Serie A could earn him opportunities at big clubs such as Milan and Juve, but ESPN insist that concrete offers do not appear to be forthcoming at present.
Rasmus Hjlund has become the latest expensive Manchester United flop
With just two goals in his last 18 Premier League games, there’s no doubt about that Hojlund struggles at Old TraffordBut he is far from the first and probably won’t end up with this problem.
Since Sir Alex Ferguson retired and left United in disarray, there have been many expensive purchases that have not worked out for the club.
The likes of Paul Pogba, Alexis Sanchez, Angel Di Maria, Romelu Lukaku and Anthony have been heavily invested in, while more recently we’ve also seen the likes of Mason Mount and Joshua Zirkzy battle it out.
Hojlund may still have a big future in the game, but he probably didn’t decide to move to United at the most ideal time, and it will be interesting to see if he can get his career back on track now.
MUFC, meanwhile, will surely continue to make changes until they settle on a squad that works better for new manager Ruben Amorim.
