Manchester United will officially launch an attack for Atalanta's talent, Rasmus Hojlund. The striker has long been under the target of the English club, but until now, the "Red Devils" had not yet made an official financial offer. According to the English media, the club leaders are already ready to take this step, and will offer Atalanta 50 million pounds for the Dane's card.
The 20-year-old stood out with his performances last season, where he managed to score 9 goals with Atalanta. However, the operation to transfer him to Old Trafford could prove complicated. This is after United have already paid 60 million pounds for the services of Mason Mount from Chelsea, and the financial situation of the club does not promise for big purchases.
The "Red Devils" recorded a loss of 115.5 million pounds in the last financial year and the board has set limits on coach Ten Hag's demands in the summer transfer window. The pressure to sell players is also huge. Among the names that can leave Old Trafford are: Harry Maguire, Jadon Sancho, Fred, Scott McTominay, Antony Martial, Alex Telles, Anthony Elanga, Eric Bailly and others.
The question marks are even bigger for United given the unclear situation regarding the future of the club in terms of its ownership. The Glazer family, which owns the shares of Manchester United, has long considered selling the club, but has not yet made a final decision among the alternatives that have been offered. Among them, the most interesting one is that of Sheikh Jassim of Qatar. In the case that the latter takes the leadership of the presidency, coach Ten Hag is expected to have more funds available for the summer market, as well as the future ones. This means that United will have the opportunity to make another offer for Harry Kane, who has long been under the target of the "Red Devils", but the value of his card has been the problem until this moment.
