Newsonline Nigeria reports that Manchester United has reportedly agreed on a deal worth an initial £64 million to sign Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund.
This Nigeria News understands that the Denmark international is the third major arrival at Old Trafford during the summer transfer window after the signings of Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount and Inter Milan goalkeeper Andre Onana.
United are understood to have agreed a fee of £64 million ($82 million) for Hojlund, with a further £8 million in add-ons.
