Bola.net – Manchester United still haven’t found the right bid formula to sign Rasmus Hojlund. This transfer plan was starting to be on the brink of failure.
Hojlund is the second target targeted by Man United. Previously, Man United were interested in signing Harry Kane from Tottenham.
The plan failed because Tottenham set a price that was too expensive. Then, Man United’s focus shifted to the Atalanta striker.
Initially, Man United hoped to get Hojlund cheaper. However, this 20-year-old player also has an expensive price tag that is difficult to afford.

Player Exchange Scheme Rejected
Because the price is so high, The Athletic reports Man United exploring other avenues. One of them is to offer player exchange.

Price Raised
This transfer plan is on the verge of failure because Atalanta is known to have raised Hojlund’s price tag. According to the same report, Atalanta are now asking for 100 million Euros.
For Man United, whose transfer budget is limited and still have to look for players in other positions, they cannot comply with Atalanta’s request.
