Manchester United Set Transfer Fee for Sale of Star Striker Rasmus Hojlund Amid Exit Rumors: Reports

GREATER MANCHESTER, ENGLAND, AUG 3 – Manchester United seeks to comply with Premier League financial rules by selling Rasmus Hojlund at a £30 million loss to fund a pursuit of RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko.

  • Manchester United set a transfer fee of £30 million for striker Rasmus Hojlund amid reports of a potential summer exit in 2025.
  • This decision follows Hojlund's underwhelming performance last season, scoring only four Premier League goals after a £64 million signing from Atalanta in 2023.
  • Despite scoring twice in a 4-1 win over Bournemouth recently, United remain unconvinced by Hojlund and are pursuing new striker targets including Benjamin Sesko and Ollie Watkins.
  • Hojlund expressed his determination to remain with the team and compete for his place, despite any uncertainties, while coach Ruben Amorim did not provide a definitive answer regarding the player's future.
  • The club's willingness to accept a lower fee suggests they aim to refresh their attack, indicating possible squad changes before the transfer window closes.
