Manchester United To Offer €60 Million For Højlund, Reject Bid For Maguire

Manchester United appears to be highly active in the transfer market, both in terms of entering and exiting players.

According to transfer market specialist Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United are still interested in 20-year-old Danish attacker Rasmus Hjlund, despite Atalanta rejecting their initial offer.

Earlier today, it was claimed that Atalanta and the Premier League heavyweights held direct conversations over the future of Hjlund, who scored 16 goals and supplied seven assists in 42 appearances for the Italian club last season.

According to reports on the meeting’s outcome, United opted to increase their proposal for Hjlund to €60 million during the direct talks.

According to a transfer market analyst, the Danish striker is eager to join Manchester United this summer, but because he is still under contract with Atalanta, the final choice rests with the club.

While Atalanta is attempting to maximize the value of the trade, Manchester United is reportedly seeking to complete the transaction as quickly as feasible.

Meanwhile, Manchester United has rejected a proposal from West Ham United for its former captain Harry Maguire.

West Ham United made an initial approach of £20 million for the services of the England international, according to transfer analyst Fabrizio Romano, but the Red Devils want more than that before allowing the center-defender to leave.

Remember that United paid Leicester City €87 million for the services of Maguire on August 5, 2019, which was the highest transfer fee paid for a defender.

Maguire was dropped from coach Erik Ten Hag’s starting eleven and also lost his captaincy armband due to unreliability on the pitch.
