'No longer': 22yo Man Utd ace set for Old Trafford stay after flop season

Manchester United could offload a few of their underwhelming first-team players this summer.

Marcus Rashford, Antony, Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho and Tyrell Malacia are already looking for a new club.

There have been reports linking Rasmus Hojlund with a move back to Italy after a horrendous 2024-25 season.

According to The Athletic, Inter no longer hold an active interest in buying Hojlund.

The Nerazzurri have opted to sign 21-year-old Ange-Yoan Bonny instead, effectively closing the door on any Hojlund reunion in Serie A.

Hojlund looks set for a Man United stay

Hojlund endured a miserable season, managing just four goals in the Premier League despite being United’s main centre-forward.

A lack of depth in attack meant manager Ruben Amorim had no choice but to persist with the out-of-form forward, even as performances continued to disappoint.

The 22-year-old showed abysmal first touch and poor hold-up play.

Despite his towering frame and physical profile, Hojlund was routinely outmuscled and outclassed by opposition defenders.

While United are desperate to sign a reliable striker, financial limitations appear to be stalling their plans.

They have only added Matheus Cunha to their attack and are struggling to reach an agreement with Brentford for Bryan Mbeumo.

Liam Delap was their priority striker target but he chose to join Chelsea.

Victor Osimhen is on the verge of joining Galatasaray, while Arsenal are in advanced talks to land Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon.

With time ticking and options dwindling, it now seems increasingly likely that Hojlund will remain United’s main man up front for another season.
