Rasmus Hojlund could leave Manchester United this summer following two years of struggles with a switch to Inter Milan potentially on the cards as his agent continues to plot the move
Rasmus Hojlund could find a way out of Manchester United by making a move to Inter Milan, who are willing to offer the Dane an escape route following his Premier League struggles.
Since moving to Old Trafford in a deal worth more than £70million the young striker has struggled for goals. He looked to have plenty of potential during his time at Atalanta and a return to Serie A could allow him to rediscover his best form following a barren spell in Manchester.
Hojlund’s profile as an Inter target is ‘advancing’, reports Calciomercato, which is partly due to the healthy relationship his agents have struck up with the hierarchy at the San Siro. Despite struggling for goals the Italian side remain keen as they eye a rebuild.
The same news outlet claims that the 22-year-old is unhappy on the red half of Manchester and is looking to find a new environment this summer. Inter believe, due to his major decline since moving to England, that they can secure his services in a cut-price deal.
Hojlund’s struggles have been well documented since he arrived at the beginning of last season. The summer signing needed until Boxing Day before he scored his first Premier League goal. This term his numbers have again dropped, scoring just 10 times – with only four coming in the league

Concerns were raised over Hojlund’s suitability to lead the line at such a tender age whilst he still had to prove himself. The player has confessed “it would have been nice to have a bit of support.”
Ruben Amorim has defended his forward recently and claimed: “I’m happy, of course all the team has to improve, but the way he runs, he fights for every ball, loses a lot of duels, wins some duels, he needs to improve the connection. But he is improving. I’m really happy with him, he just needs to continue working hard and better things will come.”
Inter have just been hammered in the Champions League final, which means they’ve missed out on all three trophies they were hoping to win just weeks ago. Lautaro Martinez is their leading light in attack, but they are still eyeing reinforcements.
United meanwhile have added Matheus Cunha for £62.5m from Wolves. Their eye for a striker has been criticised after they followed up the signing of Hojlund by adding Joshua Zirkzee, who has underwhelmed in his debut season and could yet be moved on.
