Following the loss of Cristiano Ronaldo to Al-Nassr in the winter, the side hasn&#8217;t had a recognised number nine outside of Wout Weghorst, whose time at the club was disappointing, to say the least. Marcus Rashford&#8217;s incredible goal tally throughout the year was a clear sign that the Red Devils were creating enough opportunities but simply needed someone in the right place to finish them off.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/07\/19\/manchester-united-flop-set-to-leave-according-to-reliable-journalist\/\" target=\"_self\">Manchester United &#8216;Flop&#8217; Set to Leave<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>A Fee of Over \u00a380 Million<\/h3>\n<p>Atalanta seem set to charge a vast fee for their centre-forward, and for understandable reasons. Over the past few windows clubs such as Chelsea and Arsenal have been searching for a pure striker, with a majority of options being false-nines or inside forwards. Nico Jackson has solved that issue at Stamford Bridge, but with Erling Haaland&#8217;s first season at Manchester City demonstrating the power of a finisher, Erik ten Hag is likely even more hungry for a straight striker.<\/p>\n<p>The fee being so large is simply a matter of demand. With very few number nines on the market at the moment, Atalanta hold all of the cards and can wait the Red Devils out. Old Trafford needs a striker for the coming season, and with relatively few options, Ten Hag&#8217;s side may have to pay up to secure their man.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/07\/19\/manchester-united-set-for-rasmus-hojlund-bid\/\" target=\"_self\">Manchester United Set to Make Hojlund Offer<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Main image credit: Brent Flanders <\/em><br \/>\n<em>https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2oGLpZp, CC BY-NC-ND-2.0 <\/em><br \/>\n<em>https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-nd\/2.0\/<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, Atalanta&#8217;s manager has told Sky that he hopes the club will value Rasmus Hojlund at up to a &#8220;100m fee&#8221;.
