Manchester United will cool their interest in Rasmus Højlund if Atalanta demand more than £60m for the centre-forward, with Eintracht Frankfurt’s Randal Kolo Muani also a player of firm interest for Erik ten Hag.

The United manager is intent on signing a forward and is targeting the 20-year-old Højlund. Although the Denmark international has played only a single season in Serie A and is unproven in the Premier League, Atalanta are thought to want a minimum of £70m.
