AC Milan advancing on €51m deal for Manchester United forward | OneFootball

AC Milan are advancing on an agreement to sign Rasmus Hojlund from Manchester United.

Hojlund has been told that he faces a fight for first-team football at Manchester United this season, following the arrival of Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig. The former struggled for form last season, netting just four goals in the Premier League.

AC Milan want to bring the former Atalanta player back to Serie A and are edging closer to a deal. Fabrizio Romano is reporting that Hojlund is increasingly open to the move, despite an initial reluctance to leave Old Trafford.

The terms of the deal will see Hojlund join Milan on loan for an initial fee of €6m (£5.1m), with a buy option included for €45m (£38.8m). Milan will cover the 22-year-old’s full salary during his time at the San Siro.

Hojlund signed for Manchester United in a £72m deal in 2023 and has scored 26 goals in 95 appearances across all competitions.

A downturn in form last season persuaded Manchester United to invest in their forward line, with Sesko arriving alongside Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo.

Milan are keen to add another forward to their squad following the summer exits of Tammy Abraham and Luka Jovic.
