Could Hojlund leave United?
The pursuit of Sesko de Manchester United raises questions about Rasmus hojlund Future in Old Trafford, with the club which was listening to proper offers for the attacker.
We thought that United should make sales to bring an attacker. However, although the priority is to unload players, it is understood that the Ruben Amorim team can buy before selling, provided there are sales before the window closed.
It is understood that Leipzig is interested in Hojlund and explored the conditions for a loan. Leipzig had proposed to take the striker on loan as part of any possible agreement for SESKO.
Hojlund began two of the four pre-season games of Manchester United so far and has scored in his 4-1 victory against Bournemouth, but the possible arrival of a new striker could limit his playing time.
A scenario where Sesko joins and Hojlund remains cannot be excluded.
