Man Utd Explores Atalanta's Rasmus Hojlund Amid Uncertainty Over Harry Kane Move

Manchester United's hunt for a striker intensifies this summer While Spurs' reluctance to sell Kane to a Premier League rival may hinder their chances, United have made contact for Atalanta's Rasmus Hojlund as a potential signing for the future Napoli's Victor Osimhen is also on their radar Follow the latest transfer updates on Sky Sports

Manchester United's pursuit of Harry Kane this summer seems to be losing momentum as Tottenham remains resistant to selling the prolific striker, especially to a Premier League rival. Despite Kane's impressive 30-goal tally for Spurs last season, and with only one year left on his contract, United's quest to bolster their attacking options may have to look elsewhere.

Napoli's Victor Osimhen presents another attractive option for Manchester United, however, his acquisition would also entail a significant financial investment. Whether or not the club will pursue this option may depend on potential departures and the outcome of their takeover. It has been speculated that Manchester United may consider acquiring both an experienced striker and a promising up-and-comer. In this regard, they have already taken the initiative to explore the availability of Atalanta's 20-year-old Rasmus Hojlund.

There have been rumors indicating that the Danish player may be signing with the agency that currently represents United's manager, Erik ten Hag. Additionally, United is monitoring the performance of Randal Kolo Muani from Eintracht Frankfurt, along with other potential targets.

Kane's possible options: 'Who's to say he doesn't want to stay at Spurs?'

According to News reporter Dharmesh Sheth, United's interest in signing Napoli defender Kim Min-Jae has been communicated to his representatives. Once the striker situation is resolved, the club will have a clearer picture of their available funds for other positions.

It's also possible that Kane could be sold this summer, with Tottenham receiving a significant transfer fee, but ultimately losing their best player. The decision ultimately lies with Kane and what he wants for his future, but Tottenham will certainly be doing everything in their power to keep him at the club."

They could reinvest that money into strengthening the team and bringing in players who fit Postecoglou's style of play. While losing Kane would be a blow, it could also be an opportunity for the team to rebuild and evolve under new leadership."

Kane's aspirations towards the Premier League all-time goalscoring record should not be overlooked. With 47 goals to surpass Alan Shearer's 260, his desire to claim the title seems evident. Despite the possibility of moving abroad, Kane could still have a shot at the record upon returning. However, with his loyalty to Tottenham and a young family settled in London, it's uncertain if he would be willing to leave.

Manchester United are reportedly poised to submit a bid for the services of Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount. However, negotiations between the two clubs are ongoing and a disparity in valuation remains a hurdle to be overcome. Mount, aged 24, is currently under contract with Chelsea until June 2024.

United are not willing to exceed their valuation for Mount, despite his impressive performances and potential. As the Chelsea academy graduate approaches the end of his current contract, the club has identified alternative targets, including Moises Caicedo from Brighton & Hove Albion, who has been on United's radar for some time.
