As United looks to strengthen their forward line in preparation for the upcoming season, the Atalanta striker has been linked with a move to Old Trafford.
According to reports, United manager Erik ten Hag is looking for both a youthful attacker and an experienced number nine, which is why the team is interested in Harry Kane. Hojlund has been flagged as a potential target.
With games against Slovenia and Northern Ireland coming up, as well as a busy summer ahead, the 20-year-old Dane is now on international duty. Hojlund said that he has hired a new agent from the same firm that manages Ten Hag.
The striker was evasive when asked if his decision to change agents had anything to do with an upcoming transfer.
Before Denmark's Euro 2024 qualifying matches, he told Tipsbladet, "It's a trial period and that's all I can say."
Hojlund didn't hold back when responding to rumors that he had been connected to Manchester United, and he acknowledged that it was flattering.
It's a big club, so if there are rumors that they want me, I must have done something great. We need to wait and see.
According to what we've all heard, a lot might happen to a lot of strikers this summer because there are so many clubs hunting for a Number 9.
There will undoubtedly be some sort of event, and then we'll have to wait and see if I'm a part of it.
We have qualified for Europe, so we now have to wait and see. I'm very glad to be with Atalanta.
Additionally, he refuted claims that he had video talks with Ten Hag to discuss a potential move to the club.
The Dane helped Atalanta secure a fifth-place finish and qualify for the Europa League last season with nine Serie A goals and four assists in 32 games.
Hojlund also achieved success on the international stage in 2023, scoring three goals for Denmark in a 3-1 victory over Finland in March.
