Manchester United can take £20million advantage of Liverpool's main transfer worry

02.08.2023 - 17:11 manchestereveningnews.co.uk

The arrival of Rasmus Hojlund at Old Trafford will complete the transfer triumvirate Erik ten Hag wanted. With midfielder Mason Mount and goalkeeper Andre Onana already in the building, the Danish forward represents what seems the final necessity this summer ahead of the new Premier League season.

More arrivals could follow, with another midfield body and a back-up goalkeeper on the list but that will largely depend on player departures.

United will be seeking to raise funds from sales in the final month of the window to offset some of their £165m spending spree.

The Reds have already banked £15m for Anthony Elanga while Alex Telles has departed for Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr, to join up with former Old Trafford team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo.
