After a forgettable outing last season, Manchester United are reshaping their attack again this summer.
Last season, in 38 Premier League games, they scored only 44 goals and conceded 54. That was not the standard people expect from Manchester United.
With Ruben Amorim now taking charge of the first full season, the Red Devils are looking at several forwards in the market.
Players like Randal Kolo Muani and Viktor Gyokeres have caught their eye. They even tried to bring in Hugo Ekitike.
Manchester United are also eyeing a move to sign Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig.
That is not great news for the current group. Rasmus Hojlund have failed to impress Manchester United board and fans alike. The same is with Joshua Zirkzee.
The Dutchman has failed to live up to the expectations of everyone related to Manchester United.
After bringing Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, Manchester United have to sell some of their players to facilitate the signing of a striker.
However, so far, United are struggling to make significant money from outgoings.
They have made a good amount of money from sell-on clauses. But, they are looking to offload some of their players and that too at a good price.
Italian clubs are getting linked to United players often. Alejandro Garnacho was linked to Napoli. And, Jadon Sancho was linked to Juventus.
At the start of the transfer window, Rasmus Hojlund was also linked to Inter Milan. However, Inter have moved on and now, they are looking for other options.
However, according to Footmercato, Lazio and Atalanta are now battling out to sign Rasmus Hojlund from Manchester United.
Lazio, under new manager Maurizio Sarri, are working to add fresh firepower. Atalanta are also watching Hojlund’s situation closely.
After losing Mateo Retegui and possibly Ademola Lookman, they need replacements. And they know the United striker very well. Manchester United signed Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta.
So, a return could be perfect. Atalanta believe he could easily slot back into Ivan Jurić’s system, which shares many elements with Gasperini’s style.
It will be interesting to see between Lazio and Atalanta, which club makes the first more for Rasmus Hojlund.
