The latest transfer news suggests that Manchester United may have the upper hand in the race to sign Atalanta’s talented striker, Rasmus Hojlund, during the upcoming summer transfer window.
This comes after Real Madrid’s star striker, Karim Benzema, has reportedly committed to a new contract with the Spanish giants.
Manchester United attention
Hojlund, who is just 20 years old, has already made a significant impact in the Serie A, having scored seven goals and provided two assists in 16 league starts this season. His impressive form has caught the attention of several top European clubs, including Manchester United.
Manchester United’s interest in Hojlund comes as no surprise, as they have been in the market for a quality striker to bolster their attacking options. The English giants have struggled to find a consistent goalscorer in recent seasons, with the likes of Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford, and Edinson Cavani failing to deliver on a regular basis.
Should Manchester United succeed in securing the signature of Hojlund, they will have landed themselves a promising young striker with huge potential. The Danish forward possesses excellent technical ability, pace, and a keen eye for goal, making him a formidable presence in the final third.
Hojlund to OT
While there is still much to be done before the deal can be finalized, Manchester United fans will be hopeful that their club can beat off the competition and bring Hojlund to Old Trafford this summer.
