Reliable journalist Fabrizio Romano reports that Manchester United is making headway in their effort to recruit Rasmus Hojlund to Old Trafford this summer. An formal proposal is reportedly about to be made, according to Romano.
Rasmus Hojlund has scored how many goals?
The 20-year-old hasn’t scored more than ten goals for his current team, Atalanta, in the league, but he has already made an impression. His goals per 90 rate was 0.44 as the season came to an end thanks to his nine goals and two assists in just 20 games.
Although he was unable to score 10 or more goals for the team in Serie A, it still represents the best performance of his career to date. In terms of his performance while playing for the first team, he has only gotten better. He started out with six goals at Sturm Graz and added three more the next season before leaving for Italy put an end to his goal-scoring for the Austrian team.
His nine goals scored for Atalanta without the need of a penalty put him among the top ten scorers in the division for the 2022–23 season, and his 28 shots on goal placed him seventh in that statistic as well. The young player, who is only just exiting his teen years, has shown that he can compete with the other strikers in a top league and can already help lead the line for his team.
Rasmus Hojlund is being signed by Manchester United.
These performances are what are now grabbing people’s attention elsewhere. The 20-year-old has barely spent a year with the Serie A team, but because of this, he may have already left the organisation. One of the teams that has been connected to the player the most is Manchester United, who are growing more eager to finalise a deal. According to a recent report, the Red Devils would be making a play for the striker shortly, and it now appears that time may be getting near.
The ace has already spoken to United and wants to transfer to Old Trafford, claims reputable journalist Fabrizio Romano. The Red Devils will make an official offer to sign the youngster next, and the only thing left to discuss is a money.
Atalanta wants at least 65 million Euros (or £55.9m) to sign the forward this window, so he might come at a steep price for them. The Italian team reportedly rejected United’s offer to sell some players as part of the transaction, but it appears that the Premier League club did try to do so.
Manchester United is getting ready to make their first offer for Rasmus Hjlund, according to Romano. I hereby fully agree to the personal terms told. He desires United. After initial negotiations, Atalanta informed United they didn’t want the three players offered in the deal. Around €65–70 million is the asking price. Official bid is the next step.
Despite the fact that he is still young and early in his career, many who have seen him play have already given him high acclaim. Journalist Ben Jacobs, for instance, referred to him as the “next Haaland” and called him already a “phenomenal talent.”
It’s a bold statement, but it demonstrates how outstanding he has already been in front of goal and how much room he has to improve as he gets older and more playing time. If Man United can sign him this summer, not only would their frontline problems be resolved, but they would also have a player who has the potential to be their leader for a decade.
