According to Alfredo Pedulla, Rasmus Hojlund and Sofyan Amrabat have a “total agreement” with Manchester United
Completing these moves would be a significant step toward completing Erik ten Hag’s lineup because the striker and the Moroccan midfielder have a combined anticipated expenditure of about £86 million.
Manchester United Signs Rasmus Hojlund to a Contract
Since Cristiano Ronaldo abruptly left the club during the winter break of the previous season, the Red Devils have been without a designated number nine. The best solution would be to sign Rasmus Hojlund, a talented young Dane who has a stellar scoring record in Serie A thus far.
The forward has reportedly signed personal terms with Manchester United, but an agreement with Atalanta has not yet been reached, according to Pedulla. Hojlund is crucial to the team, thus the Italians are unlikely to let him leave for a low price.
Sofyan Amrabat Accepts Personal Requirements
Along with a deal with Rasmus Hojlund, Sofyan Amrabat has reached an agreement with the Old Trafford management on a transfer. After letting the Red Devils know that Saudi Arabia was interested in his player’s services, the Moroccan agent recommended the team to act immediately. Responding quickly and giving the midfielder what he needs appears to have prevented a potential transfer to the Middle East.
Amrabat’s breakthrough occurred in Qatar during the World Cup. As a member of an immensely effective midfield, he held an exceptionally solid defensive line and played a key role in initiating counterattacks that propelled his team to the semifinals before losing to France. He’ll want to attract more followers by showcasing his incredible talent at Old Trafford faithful.
What Does This Mean for Potential Moves Regarding Manchester United?
It’s tempting to think that Erik Ten Hag’s team is set for the upcoming season when these deals are done. With the addition of Andre Onana, there is now a new number one, and a very good one at that. There isn’t much more to do to complete the squad now that there is a new striker to take advantage of opportunities, Mason Mount serves as a creative force, and Amrabat is a dedicated number eight. Loyal United fans can now feel good about their team after a long period of disappointment.
If these two deals go through, Harry Kane’s potential move might be completely ruled out. Initially, interest was spurred by Tottenham Hotspurs’ decision to sell Kane if he does not extend his contract, but with such a significant investment between these two deals, it might be challenging to find space within FFP guidelines to sign the English striker as well. Despite Carrington’s impressive skill set, the chance to be England’s leading scorer might have been lost.
