Rasmus Hojlund has held 'multiple video calls' with Erik ten Hag as Manchester United weigh up a swoop for the highly-rated Atalanta striker.
After a successful maiden campaign at the helm, Ten Hag has designs on bolstering his squad ahead of the 2023/24 campaign and acquiring a new No.9 is the Dutchman's top priority in the upcoming transfer window.
Tottenham talisman Harry Kane is the club's dream signing. However, it is believed United's rivals would be reluctant to sell to a direct Premier League rival. Ten Hag is aware of that stance and has identified other targets, including Hojlund, who has emerged as one of Europe's most promising young strikers.
