Hojlund is a key target but Atalanta want at least €70 million ($78.6m) — a valuation that United don’t believe is a fair reflection for the 20-year-old who is at the beginning of his career.

‘Sources have told ESPN that United will test Atalanta’s resolve with a bid but the club are also working on a potential move for Kolo Muani.

‘The 24-year-old is high up on manager Erik ten Hag’s list of options after scoring 23 goals for Frankfurt last season.’
