AC Milan has proposed a deal for Hojlund involving a €6 million loan and a €45 million buyout, with his market value at €35 million.

The three prominent strikers in the Premier League who remain with their clubs face a situation of limited playing time in the new season. Liverpool's forward Nunez has already moved to Saudi Arabia for financial gain, Chelsea's forward Jackson has become a fringe player, and Manchester United's Hojlund will need to transfer to get game time.

According to the latest report from Italian transfer expert Romano, AC Milan has met with Hojlund's agent to discuss the possibility of acquiring him and preliminary plans, indicating that Milan's pursuit of Hojlund has entered a substantive phase this summer. The player has agreed to return to Serie A to join Milan. Although Hojlund has publicly stated his desire to stay at Manchester United, as it is his dream club, he is under considerable pressure. Returning to Serie A to join Milan is also an excellent choice, and he has never rejected Milan. After several days of negotiations, the initial plan for Milan to sign Hojlund this summer has been established: a €6 million loan for one season, plus a €45 million buyout clause, which is significantly higher than the player’s market value of €35 million. Personal terms still need to be discussed, and currently, Hojlund's pre-tax weekly salary at Manchester United is £85,000. The next few days will be crucial for Milan in securing Hojlund's transfer.

The 22-year-old Hojlund joined Manchester United from Atalanta in the summer transfer window of 2023 for a fee of €77.8 million. In his two-year career with the Red Devils, he has made 95 appearances, scoring 26 goals and providing 6 assists. Last season, he played 52 matches, netting 10 goals and assisting 3 times, with a contract running until 2028.
