Man Utd are focused on player sales in the summer transfer window and Fabrizio Romano has issued an update.
Manchester United might need to lower their demands if they are to sell Rasmus Hojlund in the summer transfer window. Ruben Amorim wants to overhaul his attacking options this summer and United could entertain offers for the 22-year-old forward.
Inter Milan are understood to be interested in a move for Hojlund as they look to rebuild their squad after a disappointing end to the season, though he is just one of several options available to them. It is understood the Denmark international is reluctant to leave Old Trafford and wants to fight for his place at the club.
United have already signed Matheus Cunha from Wolves and remain in talks over a potential deal for Brentford talisman Bryan Mbeumo. Amorim also wants to sign a striker, though it is still unclear who their new top target will be after they missed out on a move for Liam Delap.

Inter remain interested in Hojlund
Speaking in a recent video on his YouTube channel, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano issued an update on Inter Milan's transfer plans and claimed Rasmus Hojlund remains of interest to them.
It is suggested the Champions League finalists will make an improved offer to sign Parma youngster Ange-Yoan Bonny, though they could be tempted to make a move for Hojlund if Manchester United lower their demands. A recent report from Corriere dello Sport claimed United would only allow Hojlund to leave on a permanent deal this summer and that they would demand at least €45 million for his signature.
"Inter are ready for new contacts to try to close a deal in attack: from what we have gathered in these hours, they are preparing an improved offer for Ange-Yoan Bonny,” he said.
“He has already given total openness and Inter, after the contacts with Parma, will have new ones this week: they started from 22 million plus 3, still not enough. Inter can improve the fixed part, we will see if an agreement is found on the bonuses: the valuation remains around 25 million, Parma would like something more. An improved offer is expected from Inter, who continues to work on Bonny: they want to close him as soon as possible.
“Hojlund ? Contacts continue, both on the player's side and on the United side, but Inter has not yet sunk in because the demand is still very high: the Nerazzurri club must do things at the right time, also understanding how much they will spend on Bonny, an objective on which they are working with more speed and more strength. We will understand more in the coming weeks, with Inter also evaluating the growth of Pio Esposito.”
