Hojlund rejected by Bayern as Milan chase Manchester United star

Bayern have rejected the opportunity to sign Manchester United forward Rasmus Hojlund, after reports from Germany claim that the Danish striker was offered to the Bavarian club.

Hojlund, who is also a target of Milan, was offered to Bayern but according to Sky Sport, via IlMilanista, the Bundesliga side are content with their current attacking options.

Bayern Hojlund snub opens door for Milan

The same reports claim that the Danish international has also finally agreed to a potential move to Milan. Reports earlier in the week had suggested that the Manchester United forward had no desire to join the Rossoneri but things appear to have changed.

Milan would prefer to work on a deal consisting of an initial loan with an option-to-buy whilst the reports indicate that Hojlund himself would rather leave the club permanently if he is to depart England.

With Bayern off the cards, the Rossoneri remain firm leaders in the race for the former Atalanta player. However, staying in Manchester cannot be ruled out for the Dane, despite the Red Devils signing Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko last week.
