Holy crap! United is destroying the market with these kind of deals. Glad we have our striker already. Surely this will be a reference for other clubs just like Rice was.

We need more new players 😶

we need but not center forwards 

goalkeeper, defender center back, midfielder and a attacking player like kudos

He’s not even one of those young strikers who was scoring a silly number of goals and banging in worldie after worldie from outside of the box. He’s not a striker who dribbles past defenders for fun. He’s not particularly good in the air.

I just don’t see this super talent that he’s hyped up to be.

85M is madness

a little bit and they almost buy kane 

I think only onana will be a good signing for them 

even Mount I have my doubts..

£68.7m + £4.3m in add-ons

or

£64m, plus a potential £8m in add-ons

conflicting reports

If he does this:

every so often for Manure

then he might well be worth it

he has bags of potential

I think a fair price would have been around £55m

but Manure saw fit to dump in another potential £17m to £18m to ram it through

You could’ve scored those 3 goals, Vesper! 🤣🤣🤣

I really don’t want to sound like a hater because I haven’t even watched him match to match. But highlight reels on YouTube are supposed to make even average players look like beasts and I’ve watched numerous highlight videos of him and he just looks like a run of the mill striker at a small club.

That striker we’re linked with from Montpellier, Elye Wahi looks MUCH more impressive to my eye than Hojlund does. And they’re the same age!

Manchester United agree transfer fee for Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund

Man Utd agreed the deal on Saturday morning and Atalanta have briefed the fee is £64million rising to £72m.

Manchester United have agreed a £72million fee with Atalanta for striker Rasmus Hojlund.

United secured an agreement on Saturday morning for £64m with £8m in add-ons. Hojlund, 20, has agreed personal terms on a five-year contract with the option of an additional year.

Atalanta were still demanding £77m for Hojlund as early as this week and, although United negotiated the price down, they have caved in as they were reluctant to pay more than £60m.

United have now spent £162.9m in up-front fees for Hojlund, Andre Onana and Mason Mount this summer. With add-ons, they have invested £179.2m.

Randal Kolo Muani was identified as an alternative target but Eintracht Frankfurt valued the France international at €100m.

Hojlund was identified as United’s principal striker target after the club were discouraged from bidding for Harry Kane.

The Manchester Evening News revealed in May that Ten Hag had held video calls with Hojlund. United were always confident of signing the Denmark international in time for their first game of the season against Wolves on August 14.

Figures at United concede Hojlund is a rough diamond and Marcus Rashford or Anthony Martial could start up front in some games to ease the pressure on the Dane.

Hojlund could make his first appearance for United at Old Trafford in a friendly against Lens next Saturday. United travel to Dublin to play Athletic Bilbao the next day.

Atalanta did not play Hojlund in their friendly win over Bournemouth on Saturday as they did not want to jeopardise Hojlund's transfer in case he got injured.

The Italian club used nine substitutes across the 90 minutes but Hojlund - who scored nine goals in 32 Serie A games last term - was one of just three not to make it off the bench.

Paris Saint-Germain tabled an offer for Hojlund this week but United always expected him to join them.

Hojlund moved from Copenhagen to Sturm Graz in January 2022 for €1.8m before switching to Atalanta six months later for €17m. United have agreed a deal for €84m.

Can we please start using the Non-Chelsea Transfer Pub thread again? Having all possible transfer discussions and occasional off-topics in one thread makes it almost unreadable for Chelsea news.
