Despite the buzz around his arrival, Neville is not so convinced about the signing of Hojlund. United had been linked with a move for Harry Kane earlier in the summer. However, the England captain's most likely destination if he leaves Tottenham this summer is Bayern Munich . Neville raised his concerns on the Overlap , admitting: "I hope they're [Manchester United] being clever, and Kane's being clever, and they're waiting to get a deal whereby they agree a deal with Munich, he says 'no I'm not going, and I want to go to United'. "United need Kane, they still need the young lad as well [Rasmus Højlund] to back him up and bed in and play his 25/30 games because he didn't play every game for Atalanta last season. "I'm worried that we've got this kid up front that to be fair, has massive pressure on his shoulders. "Everyone's going to be watching him, he needs that pressure taken off him a bit. 3 "Kane puts United into that sort of realm of catching Arsenal and City." Hojlund has yet to make 100 senior club appearances during his career and scored just 10 times in 34 matches for Atalanta last term. He will also be absent from United's first two matches of the season due to an injury picked up before his move. More business is expected from the Red Devils, though, with the club not yet giving Hojlund a squad number as they are aiming to make further additions this week.){kind=link}
