Manchester United would have a new striker for this season and it surprises everyone
Manchester United appear to have finished tying up their new striker for next season. It is precisely the Danish striker Rasmus Hojlund, a player who was one of the great revelations of the Italian Serie A. After several contacts between managements, the final price for the player has finally been agreed, which will surprise more than one.
Rasmus Hojlund is a profile very reminiscent of Erling Haaland in his early days, but certainly scaled back in terms of the Norwegian’s impressive scoring ability. Still, what the Dane did at Atalanta was enough for Manchester United to decide to sign him for next season. According to Fabrizio Romano, the player has a multi-year contract with the Red Devils.
Hojlund is the club’s next main transfer target after agreeing a deal with Inter for goalkeeper Andre Onana, who will undergo a medical after agreeing an initial transfer fee of €51million. United want Hojlund as soon as possible despite the near impossibility of getting him on the US tour.
How much will Manchester United pay for Hojlund?
According to English media, the player is set to come for €60m, the same price Manchester City paid for Haaland. However, the Atalanta coach assures that they are evaluating him at the club at a higher price. “I don’t know if he will stay or go, but I expect the club to value Højlund at around 80, 90 or 100 million. Rasmus is one of the best, if not the best, emerging talent in Europe as a striker,” he said. Gasperini in preparation.

Manchester United are set for a busy few weeks as the club push to try and sign a striker or two.
Erik ten Hag has been reshaping his Manchester United squad over the past few weeks, but there is one major gap, striker.
Anthony Martial is the only ‘number nine’ in the first team squad and he is not even fit, yet, and can’t be trusted to remain so.
With a few weeks left of the transfer window, Manchester United are exploring options, and it is not just Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund on the radar.
Randal Kolo Muani on Manchester United radar
According to Andy Mitten of The National, Manchester United are ‘actively negotiating’ with Eintracht Frankfurt over a deal for Muani.
He explains why the Red Devils are so high on the 24-year-old, believing the France international to be a complete forward.
The report explains: “Muani, a former winger, is rated by United for his quick feet, ability to beat players as well as score. He also has the height that would be useful when defending set pieces.”
Muani a good option at the right price
Similarly with Manchester United’s pursuit of Rasmus Hojlund, a deal for Muani comes down to Eintracht Frankfurt having a reasonable valuation of him.
He only signed for the German club last summer, and they are under no pressure to sell.
The Mail claimed way back in March that Frankfurt could demand around £100 million, before claiming they may be willing to settle for just £50-60 million.

Manchester United player ratings: Andre Onana decent compared to Real Madrid
Man United faced Real Madrid in their last tour match before the season and here is the player rating at the NRG Stadium.
Onana made his debut (Image: 2023 Manchester United FC)
André Onana
Effortlessly passed the ball and Vinicius Junior saved brilliantly with a one-handed save. Often loudly. 7
Aaron Wan-Bissaka
He moved into midfield at kick-off but was brought back on track by the dynamic Vinicius Junior. Played Jude Bellingham wide for the opening goal. 5
Raphael Varano
He resorted to desperate defense against his more athletic former teammates and United were right to keep the score at one for an hour. 6
Lisandro Martínez
Him involved in a miscommunication with Onana but prevented an own goal. Rightly booked for abruptly turning Bellingham upside down. 6
Luke Shaw
A lethargic performance from both sides by the left-back, who was not as fresh as Madrid’s full-backs. 5
Kobbie Mainoo
He came out after three minutes. N/A
Casemir
He tried some unsuccessful shots and United were often so open that Casemiro was passed up high as Madrid took the lead. 5
Bruno Fernando
I tried, as always, and found Alejandro Garnacho for a good initial opportunity. The only appetizer that stayed longer than the hour. 6
Mount Massone
Moved further forward and did not justify the change of role. A first touch foul deprived him of a scoring opportunity. 5
Alejandro Garnacho
He created a good chance and although he woke fans up from their seats, his decision making was too often naïve. Simple forced backup. 6
Marcus Rashford
Could have equalized but his first touch was difficult and Andrii Lunin quickly left the line to block the ball. A useless experience to put it in mind. 5
submarines
Christian Ericson
He was an early introduction and fitted in alongside Casemiro but didn’t show the best game. 5
Diogo Dalot
Removed one from the line. 6
Victor Lindelf
Half an hour constant. 6
Harry Maguire
Booed for the second consecutive pre-season. 5
brandon williams
Has been taken. 5
Scott McTominay
He quickly started a run and landed a shot that was saved. 6
Donny van de Beek
Barely connected with teammates. 5
Facundo Pellistri
Bright left. 6
Anthony
I took a couple of shots that went further. 6
Jadon Sancho
Requested more than 30 minutes on top. 5
