Nicky Butt admits Rasmus Hojlund's lack of Premier League experience would be a concern for Manchester United but has backed the club's recruitment team to get it right.
United have stepped up their pursuit of Hojlund in recent weeks, with Erik ten Hag identifying the 20-year-old as his preferred option after moving away from Harry Kane and Victor Osimhen. Football director John Murtough is holding extensive talks with Atalanta as he aims to get a deal over the line swiftly.
The Italian side are said to want €100million (£85.39m) for the Denmark international, although the agreed upon fee will likely lie somewhere between that and €50million. A record of 10 goals in 34 club appearances across all competitions last season suggests there is plenty of potential, with six goals from five Denmark appearances proof of his quality.
