Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund's pre-season trainer has hinted the Danish star could be set for a new challenge amid conversations with Manchester United.
On Friday, MEN Sport reported United's football director John Murtough had undertaken extensive talks with Hojlund about moving to Old Trafford. That comes after Erik ten Hag conducted several video calls with the 20-year-old expressing his intention to sign him.
United had initially identified Tottenham's Harry Kane but there is a growing realisation that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is unwilling to sell his talisman. Alternatives are being explored, including Hojlund who last season managed 10 goals in 34 appearances for Atalanta and is seen as one of Europe's rising stars.
