Man Utd face more transfer haggling after learning price tag of Erik ten Hag target

Manchester United are going to have to negotiate a greatly reduced fee if they do want to add Atalanta's Rasmus Hojlund this summer.

The Red Devils are eyeing more firepower in the transfer market with Erik ten Hag seeking to bring in a major No 9 and potentially a young forward. Hojlund would be seen as the latter, but his rapid rise at the Serie A outfit means they have placed a huge price tag on him.

The Dane, who scored nine times last season, has four-years remaining on his deal in Bergamo, putting Atalanta in a commanding position. They are seeking £86m if they are to sell the 20-year-old, according to the Daily Mail, which would be well beyond United.
