Romano states Man Utd made ‘strong offer’ to allow Hojlund to leave amid Milan interest

Rasmus Hojlund is now a growing option for AC Milan this summer. In fact, the terms may lining up favourably for him.

The issue with Vlahovic, throughout the chase, has been the finances of the deal. Milan have needed to pay more to release him from his contract, or cough up extra for his wages. In both cases, it is not ideal.

So, other options have to be considered with a striker needed. With this, others have begun to be assessed from a state of necessity. The Rossoneri could end up left red-faced and striker-less at the end of the summer if they are not careful.

Road to Hojlund

This is the reason, exactly, why there has been a change in the wishlist. According to reports yesterday, Hojlund is now the top preference and it stems from ‘fears’ about the delay in the Vlahovic saga.

So, last night, Fabrizio Romano took the time to assess the situation on his YouTube channel, via MilanNews.

“I’ve been told that Manchester United have recently made a strong initial offer to let Rasmus Hojlund leave on loan. It’s a name I mentioned several times over the summer, saying: let’s keep an eye on him.

“Hojlund insisted, and still insists, on the possibility of staying at Manchester United to play his cards, compete with Sesko and Zirkzee. But for their part, Manchester United are open to selling Hojlund and are now doing so also on loan with an option to buy.

“This is important news that opens up some scenarios; the terms of the potential loan need to be understood. It wouldn’t be free, but rather very costly and also with a very significant salary that needs to be covered and with an option to buy at a higher price than it would cost to buy Hojlund today.

“Terms to be discussed; Milan are interested in Rasmus Hojlund, have had several contacts and have been memorizing the situation for several days. The Dusan Vlahovic option remains open. I can say that Milan have also spoken with the Hojlund intermediaries.”
