Man Utd set £40m asking price for struggling star, set sight on summer move

Manchester United’s rebuilding process has continued under Ruben Amorim with some players expected to leave the club in the summer.

Despite arriving at Old Trafford in the summer of 2023 from Atalanta, £64m signing Rasmus Hojlund has now been linked with a summer move. According to report, United are reportedly open to offers of around £40m for the young forward.

The Denmark international has scored just 23 goals in 73 games for the Red Devils since his £64m move from Atalanta and was left out of the starting XI against Crystal Palace, with midfielder Kobbie Mainoo instead chosen by Ruben Amorim to lead the line.

Latest report from Teamtalk have now claimed West Ham United are monitoring Hojlund’s situation and would love to sign him in the summer.

TEAMtalk understands that Hojlund has admirers at West Ham and they could consider a summer move for him if they miss out on Brighton’s Evan Ferguson.

Hojlund has failed to live up to expectations since his move from Atalanta in the summer of 2023. He certainly has potential, but has struggled to adapt to life in the Premier League.

As a result, Man Utd ARE considering parting ways with Hojlund in the summer, with Ruben Amorim not convinced by the forward. The Red Devils have already accepted that they won’t be able to recoup what they paid as things stand.

With Amorim yet to chose his first eleven, Hojlund has until the summer to prove he has the potential to represent Manchester United.
