Paris Saint-Germain have submitted a bid value £42.9m for Manchester United switch goal
Rasmus Hojlund, 90min understands.
United, who Erik ten Hag says are “working 24/7” to signal a striker, have settled on the 20-year-old Dane as their high goal this summer season and made the next provide than PSG’s on Wednesday, value £51.4m inclusive of add-ons.
Hojlund has already indicated to Atalanta that he desires the chance to affix United, and that stance has been reaffirmed by his camp to the Pink Devils – they’re his first alternative vacation spot and he hopes a payment will likely be agreed.
Sources have confirmed to 90min that PSG’s opening offer for Hojlund is a verbal one worth €50m in local currency, but it is unlikely to be accepted as Atalanta have already indicated that at least €70m will be requited to part ways this summer.

Club officials have even publicly valued Hojlund at €100m, though there’s a realisation that neither United or PSG, or any other club for that matter, would be prepared to pay that amount.
It’s also unclear whether or not PSG will look to further their interest in Hojlund if Atalanta knock their bid back, as they are also known to be pursuing Benfica striker Goncalo Ramos.
Luis Enrique’s first summer in the French capital has already been a busy one, with turnover high at PSG both in terms of incomings and outgoings. Milan Skriniar, Marco Asensio, Manuel Ugarte, Lee Kang-in and Lucas Hernandez are five high-profile players to have arrived at the club this summer, compensating for the exits of Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos among others.
