Hojlund decision made! Man Utd STUNNED as Inter complete €25m deal

Inter have moved on from Manchester United forward Rasmus Hojlund and are closing in on the signing of Parma youngster Ange-Yoan Bonny instead.

The Nerazzurri are in the market for a new striker following the departures of Joaquin Correa and Marco Arnautovic, and Hojlund had been among the Champions League finalists’ top targets.

Man Utd, for their part, are open to selling the Dane as they need to raise money to fund their summer rebuild. The 22-year-old has flattered to deceive since joining from Atalanta for €78 million in 2023 and is one of the candidates to leave Old Trafford this summer.

However, a defiant Hojlund recently insisted that he is going nowhere this summer. Moreover, the finances of a potential deal for the young striker were always going to be prohibitive as far as Inter are concerned.

The Serie A giants would have preferred an initial loan with an obligation or option to purchase the Denmark international in the future, but Man Utd’s stance for now is that he is only available for permanent deals.

Inter set to sign Bonny

Instead of wasting time trying to convince Man Utd to lower their demands for Hojlund, Inter have moved swiftly to secure an alternative option in what will be a blow to the Red Devils, who really could have used the money from a sale of the 22-year-old.

According to Sky Italia, Inter are on the verge of tying up a €25m deal for up-and-coming Parma star Ange-Yoan Bonny, who played under new Nerazzurri boss Cristian Chivu last term.

The France U21 international is coming off a breakout season in which he netted six goals and provided four assists. Bonny joined Parma from Chateauroux’s academy in 2021 and has been catching the eye over the past 12 months.

Napoli are also credited with an interest in the 21-year-old, but Inter are now well-placed to complete his signing. Personal terms have yet to be finalised, but the presence of Chivu should make for smooth discussions with the promising forward.
