Rasmus Højlund’s future at Manchester United has come under the spotlight, with the Danish striker and his representatives clarifying their stance to interested clubs. According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Højlund and his camp have informed Napoli, RB Leipzig, AC Milan, and other suitors that any potential departure from Old Trafford would only be considered under a loan deal with an obligation to buy.
The 22-year-old forward, who arrived at United in 2023 from Atalanta, has consistently expressed his desire to stay and succeed at the club. However, with Ruben Amorim reshaping his squad and United bringing in Benjamin Sesko in attack, Højlund’s future remains uncertain. While his first season in England showed glimpses of promise, inconsistency and injuries limited his overall impact in front of goal.
Romano reports that Højlund’s preference for a loan with obligation highlights his need for stability and assurance in the next stage of his career. Should he be forced to leave Manchester, the Danish international wants a move that guarantees long-term confidence and commitment from the buying club.
