Manchester United look to offload Danish forward Rasmus Hojlund, who recently expressed a desire to stay and fight for his place at Old Trafford. Tottenham is reportedly eyeing Nico Paz as an alternative. The move comes as Manchester United looks to overhaul its roster.
Hojlund, who arrived at Old Trafford in February 2022 with high expectations, has struggled to secure playing time under manager Erik ten Hag. The Danish forward has made just four appearances this term, with only two of those coming in the Premier League.
"I really enjoy it at Manchester United," Hojlund told Danish media outlet BT last week. "I like the style of play under the new coach. It's a chance to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world, and I have no doubt that I will benefit from this experience in the future. I just have to keep working hard and take the chances when they come."
Unfortunately for Hojllund, opportunities have been scarce, and with the arrival of Jack Henry from Blackburn Rovers, he could find his chances even more limited.
According to reports, United technical director John Murtough is willing to allow the 19-year-old to leave on loan this January, provided a buy-out clause is included in the deal.
Hojlund, a Danish youth international, has reportedly attracted interest from a host of Premier League clubs, including Tottenham, who are looking to bolster their attacking options during the January transfer window.
Spurs have reportedly set their sights on Hojlund's United teammate Nico Paz, who is also a Danish forward, as a potential loan option. Paz recently spoke out about his frustration at a lack of playing time, saying, "I would like to get some minutes, but it is not easy when you are not playing. It's a difficult situation for me at the moment."
Paz, 19, is yet to make his debut for United's first team but has featured regularly for the under-21 side.
A departure for Paz could be more straightforward, with a number of clubs in the Netherlands and Belgium reportedly interested in taking the Denmark under-19 international on loan.
A breakthrough talent, Paz scored 10 goals in 13 appearances for Danish top-flight club FC Nordsjaelland before his move to Old Trafford.
