According to United in Focus, Juventus is said to have considered the ability to recruit not only one but two “redundant” from Man United. Juventus had specific negotiations with Jadon Sancho, but it seemed that they were also interested in the striker not being used as Rasmus Hojlund.
Not one, but two
Man United is facing a challenging mission in liquidating a series of high -income stars but no longer in the plan of coach Ruben Amorim.
The Red Devils currently have a group of players eliminated from the main squad, often called “slow bombing squad”. They let Marcus Rashford join Barcelona on loan and are continuing to try to push other names.
One of the biggest problems with Man United at this time is to find the solution for Jadon Sancho's case, who has entered the final year of the contract and is enjoying a very high salary. Juventus had serious negotiations on the British winger and many sources said that the deal was gradually coming to an end.
Man United is willing to lower the required price to create conditions for Juventus to offer Sancho's wage. Not stopping there, Juventus is also considering the ability to recruit more Rasmus Hojlund. This is a move that will help Man United remove not only one but two names are no longer suitable.
Old Trafford's home team is also actively looking for a new striker, because Amorim coach has no intention of continuing to use Hojlund. The Danish striker has been contacted with Inter Milan, but the deal has fallen into a stalemate due to the black and blue striped shirt team that did not reach an agreement with Man United.
Why is Juventus interested in Rasmus Hojlund?
AC Milan is also said to be watching Hojlund, but the interest from Juventus can surprise many people. But in the current context, the Turin team has reasons to consider this deal.
Juventus has not yet made the final decision about the future of Randal Kolo Muorni, although the French striker wants to stay. At the same time, they are also preparing to break up with Dusan Vlahovic, which means they need a new striker to pair with rookie Jonathan David.
Any move to recruit Hojlund will depend on the price offered by Man United. The Red Devils are thought to recover a large amount of money spent to recruit this player from Atalanta.
Thus, Juventus will definitely face many challenges if they want to own Rasmus Hojlund, while the deal with Sancho seems to be able to complete sooner.
