United would prefer to sell unwanted striker Hojlund to a foreign team rather than a الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز rival, according to The Independent. The Danish forward is expected to leave Old Trafford during the final few weeks of the summer transfer window following the arrival of Benjamin Sesko from آر بي لايبزيغ, having endured two difficult seasons after joining the Red Devils from أتالانتا.
Fulham may be in for a new striker if Rodrigo Muniz – who earned the Cottagers a point at برايتون on Saturday having been heavily linked with Atalanta – moves on during the next fortnight or so, but the Red Devils would prefer to strike a deal with a club from abroad. AC Milan are thought to be one such interested party, with the Italian giants’ sporting director recently admitting the 22-year-old is “a good option for us”.
Hojlund himself previously asserted his desire to stay and fight for his place at Old Trafford, though his measly haul of four Premier League goals last season coupled with Sesko’s signing seems to suggest manager Ruben Amorim is forging a path forward without him. He was also completely left out of the United squad that lost 1-0 to أرسنال يوم الأحد.
United are thought to want around £40 million (€46.3m/$54.1m) to part ways with Hojlund this summer but there’s every chance the Dane is sent out on loan temporarily if no permanent deal materialises soon.
