Rasmus Hojlund set to undergo medical ahead of completing proposed Manchester United move

 Rasmus Hojlund set to undergo medical ahead of completing proposed Manchester United move:

Rasmus Hojlund will go to Manchester on Tuesday for a medical before finalizing his projected move to Manchester United.

United has agreed to purchase the 20-year-old striker for €75 million plus €10 million in add-ons with Atalanta.

Personal terms are in place on a five-year deal contract with a 12-month extension option.

Hojlund joined Atalanta last summer after leaving Sturm Graz in Austria. In 31 Serie A appearances, he has eight goals and two assists.

In March, the Danish international scored five goals in two games during Euro 2024 qualifying, including a hat-trick against Finland.

 He will be United's third signing of the summer, following Mason Mount and Andre Onana.

On Saturday, United will host the French team Lens at Old Trafford.

I'd like to inform you about Hojlund as a player.

Hojlund's debut season in Serie A was promising but puzzling. Twenty of his 32 league starts came as a starter, with manager Gian Piero Gasperini occasionally using him as a second-half 'closer' to run against tired opposing legs. (This may explain why his numbers are skewed, as he played in shorter bursts than the other strikers on this list.)

When Hojlund did join the field of play, he performed admirably. Ten Hag may have stated that he wants an experienced striker who brings "no risk," but the delight of Hojlund — who only left his adolescence in February — comes from imagining the player he could be in two to three seasons.

When discussing him, the word "potential" comes to mind.
