Manchester United’s pursuit of Rasmus Hojlund has been given a boost after Atalanta acknowledged that it would be “impossible” to reject “huge” offers for the striker. The 20-year-old has caught the eye of some of Europe’s top clubs this season following a stunning breakthrough for both club and country. Despite only scoring eight goals in 23 matches for his club, the Danish forward has drawn comparisons with Erling Haaland due to his background, 6ft1in frame, and speed. Hojlund, who is a self-confessed Manchester United fan, would relish the opportunity to move to Old Trafford. Atalanta boss Gian Piero Gasperini has admitted that the club would not stand in his way if a “huge” offer arrives this summer. While United have expressed interest in Hojlund, they may postpone a move for him until 2024 or 2025 as they focus on signing a ready-made centre forward to lead their title challenge next season. Harry Kane is their top target, but it remains unclear whether Tottenham would allow him to join another Premier League club.
