Rasmus Hojlund could potentially join Leeds United from Manchester United in a controversial transfer next summer.
The Whites and the Red Devils have a long-standing rivalry in English football, and the Danish striker’s move may cause more friction.
Hojlund has emerged as an option at Elland Road recently after his struggles at Old Trafford since signing from Atalanta in 2023.
While Joel Piroe won the Championship Golden Boot this season, the West Yorkshire outfit should arguably add more Premier League experience to their attack next summer.

Hojlund’s record at Man United this season.
There’s no reason why the Whites can’t offer a similar deal to pip the Nerazzurri to Hojlund’s transfer.
Paraag Marathe has promised to back Daniel Farke and must show ambition to establish the West Yorkshire outfit in the top flight.
The Peacocks can’t continue being a team uncertain of their Premier League status, and while fans will be shocked to see the Man United striker at Elland Road for different reasons, it may be what’s needed.
49ers Enterprises to reinforce squad for Farke next summer
49ers Enterprises must invest heavily at Leeds next summer to build a competitive squad to deal with the rigours of the top flight.
The American owners should be ready to spend a significant amount of money to ensure the Whites survive the drop next season.
Some fans might not be pleased with a move for Hojlund due to his underwhelming numbers this season, but he boasts considerable talent, as was on display in last season’s Champions League.
Other supporters are arguably right to think the West Yorkshire outfit can’t afford the Danish centre-forward, but that’s the perception the 49ers must change in LS11 after promotion to the top flight.
