Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund has been linked with a move away from the club, and AC Milan are hoping to sign him.
According to a report by Italian outlet Calciomercato, AC Milan have reached a draft agreement to sign 22-year-old Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund. The Danish international will still need to approve the move, but it seems that the Serie A giants could now sign him on loan with an option to buy.
The Dane has not been able to live up to expectations since joining Manchester United, and returning to Italy could be ideal for him. He played his best football in Italy with Atalanta. The player will be desperate to get his career back on track. The move to Manchester United has not worked out for him, and sitting on the bench at the Premier League club is unlikely to benefit him.
Manchester United have brought in a new striker this summer, and Benjamin Sesko is likely to start ahead of Hojlund. The Denmark international should look to move on quickly and sort out his future so that he can focus on his football once again.
There is no doubt that the Dane is a talented young player with a bright future. Perhaps returning to his comfort zone could bring out the best in him once again, even though he has been bullish about his future at Manchester United.
Although Hojlund’s performances have not been poor for Manchester United, they have been mediocre, and the Red Devils need a better player leading the line for them if they want to fight for major trophies. It will be interesting to see if Hojlund approves the move to AC Milan in the next few days.
The Red Devils are among the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to play for them could be quite exciting for the young attacker. He needs to join a club where he will play regularly. He needs a manager who will trust in him. Massimiliano Allegri is certainly one of the best managers in European football, and he could bring out the best in the young attacker.
Meanwhile, Manchester United need to get rid of the striker as well. The struggling Premier League giants will be hoping to get rid of the other fringe players before the window closes. Manchester United have been quite active in the transfer market, and they have brought in impressive signings to improve the attacking unit.
The Red Devils have brought in Matheus Cunha from Wolves and Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford as well. They were quite toothless going forward last season, and it seems that they have decided to pull off a complete overhaul of the attacking unit.
Manchester United had a disappointing 2024/25 campaign, and they finished in the bottom half of the Premier League table. It will be interesting to see if they can bounce back strongly and push for a place in the top four next season.
