According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Serie A clubs are closely monitoring the situation of the Danish striker, in the context that MU can recruit a new striker in the summer of 2025. If the English team decides to sell Hojlund, many Italian teams will immediately open official negotiations.
Previously, The Athletic confirmed that MU would consider selling Hojlund if they received a reasonable offer. The Old Trafford team ran out of patience with the Danish striker when he contributed extremely limitedly to the overall play.
In his weekly tactical analysis video Tactics Exposed , Sun Sport writer Dean Scoggins pointed out a serious problem: "Hojlund doesn't get enough support, that's true. But his average position is lower than defensive midfielder Manuel Ugarte against Man City. That's baffling," Scoggins stressed.
In addition, Hojlund is said to lack confidence in 1-on-1 situations with defenders, and does not know how to pressure the opponent's defense. Meanwhile, Joshua Zirkzee is not too fast but knows how to stretch the defense more effectively.
MU is considering exchanging Hojlund for Victor Osimhen, the Napoli striker currently on loan at Galatasaray. Osimhen is a classy striker and has made a name for himself in Serie A. He is considered an ideal option if coach Amorim wants to refresh his attack.
Hojlund made a strong impression when playing for Atalanta, forcing the "Red Devils" to spend up to 72 million pounds to bring him back after a season in Serie A. At that time, Hojlund's enthusiastic playing style and ability to connect the play made coach Erik ten Hag have high expectations even though this striker only scored 10 goals.
In his first season in England, Hojlund scored 16 goals in all competitions, not bad for a new signing. But since coach Ruben Amorim took over, the 22-year-old's form has clearly declined. He has scored just two goals in the Premier League, and a total of four in all competitions since then.
