This Friday, Manchester United published on its social networks images of its new training center for the first team in Carrington. In recent months, Ruben Amorim players have notably settled in a building usually reserved for the women's team and the academy while the site is completed. To benefit from modern and new equipment, the residents of Old Trafford spent € 57 million. Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his teams want to offer the best to their team. This is also the case with regard to the transfer window. Man U notably spent 150 million € to afford the Bryan Mbeumo-Matheus Cunha duo.
Man U opens the door to Hojlund
They also dropped € 76.5 million, more than € 8.5 million in bonuses, to attach the services of Benjamin Sesko. The player pushed to join the Mancunians, despite a higher proposal from Newcastle which offered to play the Champions League. Despite complicated results, Manchester United still manages to attract players. Slovenian's signature will necessarily change things for Ruben Amorim, who believed that he did not have a world class attacker in his ranks. Marcus Rashford could have occupied this role, but it was not necessarily the great love between the Portuguese coach and the English, who joined FC Barcelona.
Antony is a specialist in the post. But then again, the Red Devils want to part with it. A return to Betis, where he was on loan, is studied. Except that this file no longer really advances. Man U claims € 60 million for the Brazilian. A sum that Andalusian cannot pay. Sesko's arrival does not change anything to his fate which was already sealed. On the other hand, it changes a lot for Joshua Zirkzee and Rasmus Højlund, for which the door can open. The assumption of seeing the Danish scorer under contract until 2028 was mentioned in recent days.
An agreement is close to AC Milan
The player himself had said: “I think my plan is very clear, it is to stay and fight for my place, no matter what's going on.” Except that the English stable does not really hear it from that ear. There Gazzetta dello Sport Announcement this Friday that an agreement is close between Manchester United and AC Milan, which wants Højlund to expand its attack in addition to Santiago Giménez. The pink paper publication explains that the Rossoneri want to accelerate on this file and complete it by next week.
Regarding the formula, we head to a paid loan of € 4 million with a purchase option set at € 40 million. The Milanese would also cover her salary of € 3.8 million per season. But you still have to convince the player, who imagined staying and fighting for a place. He is thinking about this option, knowing that Manchester United is clearly open to it this summer. A new showdown at 40 M € that the English intend to win, they who were not satisfied with the player bought € 74 million at Atalanta in 2023. For the moment, Højlund still resists…
