The announcement of Rasmus Hojlund's transfer to Manchester United could be delayed by another three days. It is understood Hojlund, 20, arrived later than planned on Tuesday and United's schedule surrounding the Dane's signing has altered.

Hojlund flew into Manchester Airport at 4.15pm. Hojlund was due to meet some supporters and conduct activities around his signing today but that was cancelled and United are focusing on his medical.

The deal is not remotely in jeopardy and United are now looking at a possible weekend announcement around the home friendly against Lens at 12.45pm on Saturday.

United agreed a fee of £64m, plus £8m in add-ons, for Hojlund with Atalanta on Saturday morning, having suggested they would not pay more than £60m.
