Mason Mount responds to Rasmus Hojlund’s message as Man United exit looms
Man United striker Rasmus Hojlund was in high spirits on social media despite ongoing speculation over his future at Old Trafford.
Hojlund endured another frustrating campaign at United last season and has struggled in front of goal since arriving in 2023.
The Danish forward scored just four goals in all competitions, as United’s problems in front of goal continued to be a major issue throughout the season. As a result, the club are in the market for attacking reinforcements this summer.
However, as reported by Football Insider, Man United may need to cash in on Hojlund before making a move for a new striker in order to free up funds.
Both Napoli and Inter Milan have expressed interest in Hojlund, though it remains to be seen whether either side will submit a serious offer.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding his future, Hojlund appeared focused in his latest update, highlighting his commitment to pre-season preparations with the squad.
Rasmus Hojlund sends excited update in Man United training return
Man United players were back at Carrington this week for the start of pre-season, and Hojlund looked eager to get going again as he shared a glimpse of the opening sessions.
He captioned his post on Instagram with: “Hello. It’s good to be back.”
The post drew plenty of attention from teammates, with Mason Mount, Marcus Rashford and club captain Bruno Fernandes among those to show their support by liking the update.
Despite the camaraderie in the camp, it appears United are open to offers for the Danish striker as they look to bring in a new centre-forward.
Man United are reportedly willing to make a significant loss on Hojlund, having paid Atalanta £72 million for his services just two years ago.
His performances have struggled to justify that price tag, and frustration has grown among some sections of the fanbase, with calls from Man United fans to move Hojlund on.
Mason Mount could join Rasmus Hojlund in Man United exit
Although Mount continues to be active on social media and publicly backs his teammates, his own future at Old Trafford is also up in the air.
Football Insider revealed Man United are prepared to listen to offers for Mount, with Aston Villa named as one of the clubs keen on a potential deal.
Mount suffered an injury-plagued season, missing 23 matches across all competitions, and the ongoing fitness concerns have raised doubts internally.
Aston Villa are now plotting a move for Mount, and that fresh start elsewhere could give him the opportunity to rediscover his form.
