Atalanta forward Rasmus Hojlund has admitted that a move to Manchester United would be “huge”.
The Red Devils are strongly tipped to sign a new striker in the summer transfer window with Harry Kane another top target, although Tottenham are adamant they will not sell to a domestic rival.
That has drawn the likes of Hojlund into focus, along with potential signings Victor Osimhen and Goncalo Ramos. Chelsea are also reportedly interested in the Danish youngster and Napoli’s Osimhen.
Hojlund has now confirmed to Berlingske that he is trialling a new agent as the market opens, ramping up the speculation over his future although rumours of a video call with United boss Erik ten Hag have been denied.
Nonetheless, the 20-year-old has indicated that a move to Old Trafford would very much interest him.

“It's a huge club,” he stated.
“So I must have done something right if it says they want me. My goal is to reach the top, and you can say that Manchester United is.
“So it would be huge.”
Hojlund cost Atalanta in the region of £15million when signing from Sturm Graz last August before hitting nine goals in 32 Serie A appearances, helping the Bergamo club qualify for next season’s Europa League.
