- Rasmus Hojlund scored four Premier League goals for Man United last season
- The Red Devils are keen to sell so they can free up funds for a summer rebuild
- The Denmark interest has attracted interest in Italy after his success at Atalanta
Inter Milan are stepping up their interest in Rasmus Hojlund, who could be allowed to leave Manchester United for a cut-price fee.
Mail Sport reported previously how Napoli, Juventus and Inter have been watching his progress aware that the 22-year old had greater success in Italy.
Inter have made contact with his entourage and want to ascertain a price from United over the coming days.
Any deal would help free up cash for United’s rebuild.
Ruben Amorim’s side struggled to score goals in last season’s disastrous Premier League campaign as they managed to find the back of the net just 44 times in their 38 matches.
Hojlund contributed to just four of those and mustered just one in a four-month dry spell between December and April — a woeful return for a player who cost £72million from Atalanta in 2023.

Amorim has already taken a step towards addressing Man United’s attacking problems with the signing of Brazil forward Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £62.5m.
The news comes just days after Hojlund was linked with another Italian club, Napoli.
United reportedly sent recruitment planner Matt Hargreaves to sweet talk Napoli president Aurelio Di Laurentiis and sporting director Giovanni Manna.
The Premier League club were reputedly hoping to use Hojlund as a makeweight in a deal to sign Victor Osimhen. Now, however, Inter Milan are in the box seat to buy the 22-year-old from United.
