RASMUS HOJLUND is really keen on joining Manchester United this summer according to reports.
Meanwhile, Andre Onana's £42.7m transfer to Manchester United has finally been confirmed.
Only Chelsea's £72m world record signing of Kepa Arrizabalaga and Liverpool's £67m acquisition of Alisson – both in 2018 – are larger than Onana's move to Old Trafford.
And the takeover continues to drag on, with the Glazers STILL yet to make any announcement after receiving improved bids.

Onana, 27, is Erik ten Hag’s latest big capture after starring under the Dutchman at Ajax.Onana’s long-awaited Old Trafford transfer was finally confirmed on Thursday, allowing him to link up with new United teammates in the USA.

Playing for Keeps
Man Utd made signing a goalkeeper a priority – and the new man between the sticks at Old Trafford will be Andre Onana.
The Red Devils splashed £47million on the Cameroon shotstopper who will replace David De Gea between the sticks.
The Cameroon international was a revelation in the club's Champions League run to the semi finals in 2019.
It's a competition he thrives in, after helping Inter Milan reach last season's final.
The 27-year-old has signed a five-year deal reportedly worth around £6.2million a year.
And the goalie has made sure he's shared the wealth accrued from his fame with his homeland.

United consider Jonny Evans offer
Manchester United are giving Jonny Evans the chance to earn a permanent stay at the club, according to The Telegraph.
Evans was surprisingly re-signed by United on a short-term deal earlier this week and featured in the friendly win against Lyon.
The defender will now travel with an academy squad to San Diego, where a side mostly filled with youngsters will play Wrexham on Tuesday.
And he could be offered a contract by Erik ten Hag if he impresses, as he would act as a cheap back-up option.

United prepare offer for Hojlund
Manchester United are preparing to submit an offer of €60m for Danish hot-shot Rasmus Hojlund.
That’s the understanding of Italian football journalist Alfredo Pedulla, who believes Atalanta will be willing to do business in order to finance their own transfer activity.
The €60m presented is not thought to include any bonuses that Old Trafford officials may offer to include in order to sweeten the deal.
At 20-years-old, Hojlund is one of the most exciting attacking talents in Europe, and has already netted six times for his country in just six appearances.

Onana in line for Arsenal debut
Manchester United wrapped up the signing of Andre Onana yesterday evening – and it now appears that the Old Trafford faithful will not have to wait long to see their new goalkeeper in action.

Onana will become the fifth United goalkeeper out in America, and will alternate with Nathan Bishop, Tom Heaton, Dean Henderson and Radek Vitek across the next four games Stateside.
Meanwhile, it has also been revealed that the 27-year-old will wear the number 24 shirt during his debut season with the Red Devils.

Ten Hag hopes Harry will stay
Erik ten Hag is hoping that Harry Maguire will remain at Manchester United despite replacing him as club captain with Bruno Fernandes.
The much-maligned defender has been the speculation of transfer rumours ever since he was dropped as first choice centre-back early last season.
However, talkSPORT believe that Ten Hag wants Maguire to lean on his professionalism to provide strength and competition in central defence.
The 30-year-old England international has been linked with Chelsea, Newcastle and West Ham this summer, and has previously indicated his desire to play first team football.

Andre arrival to accelerate Hendo exit
David de Gea has already waved goodbye to Manchester United, and Dean Henderson could soon follow him out of the Old Trafford exit door.

Henderson lost his place at the City Ground to Keylor Navas following an injury in January, but the decorated Costa Rican has since returned to Paris Saint-Germain.
Forest had been ready to pull the plug on their long-standing interest in the English stopper with United playing hard ball, but Andre Onana's arrival could now see the Red Devils hoping to complete a quick and straightforward deal.

David's no to replacing Onana
Andre Onana has arrived at Old Trafford from Inter Milan to replace David de Gea in the Manchester United goal – but the departing Spanish stopper almost ensured that the transfer deal went full circle.

However, the 32-year-old wasn't satisfied with the terms laid out, and instead favours a return to Spain to play in La Liga.

And Onana could yet be involved when the Red Devils take on fellow Premier League club Arsenal at the MetLife Stadium on Saturday.

Charlie set to check out
Manchester United youngster Charlie Savage is set to make a permanent move away from Old Trafford.
According to the Manchester Evening News, the 20-year-old is close to joining League One Reading as the Berkshire clubs undergoes a rebuild following relegation.
Unsurprisingly, United officials have been shrewd enough to include a sell-on clause should Savage prove a success story with the Royals and attract attention from bigger clubs.
The midfielder famously made his one and only United appearance in the Champions League against Young Boys in December 2021 while his father Robbie was commentating on the game for BT Sport.
