Manchester United’s move to sign Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund may see Amad return to the Serie A side on a season-long loan deal to negotiate down the striker’s price
Manchester United are confident about a deal to sign Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund this summer with Amad potentially returning to the Serie A club on a season-long loan deal as part of the move.
United are ramping up their pursuit of Denmark international Hojlund. The Red Devils are intent on signing a new central striker this summer following the expiration of Wout Weghorst’s loan arrangement â leaving Anthony Martial as the only recognised senior player in that position, with the Frenchman’s future at Old Trafford unclear.
Hojlund has impressed in his debut season in Bergamo having joined from Sturm Graz last summer. He bagged nine goals in Serie A while also impressing for his nation in the European Championships qualifiers.
United entered this season prioritising the signing of a central striker but that has since taken a back seat. Attack-minded midfielder Mason Mount completed his move to Old Trafford with the Red Devils paying an initial £55m plus up to £5m in add-ons for the England international.
