Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund is reportedly emerging as a transfer target for Erik ten Hag at Bayer Leverkusen, according to Stretty News.

It remains to be seen if this will happen, however, as Hojlund is also wanted by Inter Milan, as revealed in Alfredo Pedulla’s exclusive CaughtOffside column last week.

Ten Hag worked with Hojlund at United and struggled to get the best out of him there, but perhaps the 22-year-old could fare better in the Bundesliga.
It seems Ten Hag might also be keen on a reunion with Alejandro Garnacho, as reported by both Fabrizio Romano and Mark Brus on CaughtOffside.
It could certainly end up being useful for the Red Devils to offload one or two of their struggling attacking players this summer.
Matheus Cunha has already joined United from Wolves, and Bryan Mbeumo could be next to move to Old Trafford.
