Rasmus was the top priority for Erik ten Hag club this summer after Man. United decided to back away from Tottenham’s Harry Kane and Napoli’s Victor Osimhen.

The Italian side wanted at first 100 million dollars for the young striker, but Man. United told them they are willing to spend at most 75 million dollars. After a compromise from both teams, Höjlund became a Red Devil for a transfer fee in between.
