Manchester United are considering a new striker signing this summer — and it could spell trouble for Rasmus Hojlund.
The Danish forward hasn’t quite hit the mark since joining from Atalanta last year in a deal worth £72 million. Now, his place in the squad might not be as secure as it once seemed.
According to reports in Italy (via Sky Sports News), AC Milan have joined a growing list of clubs eyeing a move for Hojlund.
The Serie A giants are “exploring the conditions” of a deal, as they search for a new number nine. With United already adding Matheus Cunha to the squad and planning to sign Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo, could leave Hojlund stuck in the dugout with.
United boss Ruben Amorim is reportedly pushing for more firepower up front. And while Hojlund is still just 22, the numbers haven’t been kind.
He managed just four goals in the Premier League last season and looked out of rhythm for most of the campaign.

Why Rasmus Hojlund could leave Man Utd?
A move back to Italy may feel like a fresh start for Hojlund. He enjoyed a decent spell at Atalanta, scoring 10 goals in one season.
Inter, Napoli, Roma, and now Milan have all shown interest. That’s a full Serie A front line chasing the Dane.
Still, Hojlund has apparently made it clear he wants to stay and prove himself in Manchester. He’s under contract until 2028, with an option for another year.
But the final decision may rest with the club — and their summer transfer plans.
If United manage to bring in another striker, Hojlund could find his minutes even harder to come by. And with AC Milan circling, the temptation to return to familiar ground might grow.
This one could go to the wire — and fans should brace for more twists in the summer window.
