At the start of the season, Ten Hag receives this great news

After having had a horrible beginning of the transfer market window, when nothing seemed favorable for Erik Ten Hag, the Manchester United coach could be ready to smile again. The Dutchman has already completed the move of Mason Mount to the club, as one of the elite players he was determined to have at his squad has been on the pitch with his teammates once he was presented as the new number 7 at Manchester United.

In addition to this, happy news is coming for the Dutchman. After Mount, the coach is keen on adding new players to the team, with the preseason close to begin and the squad ready to give another step in the Ten Hag project at Manchester United.

In this sense, according to Skysports, the Dutchman could soon have a new striker, as Manchester United has been reported to continue holding positive talks with Atalanta over the signing of Rasmus Højlund, a top priority for Ten Hag for the United’s attack. The Danish 20-year-old player played as center forward and has already completed 32 games in the Italian league, showing a great potential and scope to improve.

Manchester United is closer and closer to ‘the new Haaland’

The qualities of Rasmus Højlund are highly valued by Erik Ten Hag, who sees in the Danish wonderkid a perfect striker to add to his project. In addition to that, the Højlund size, 1.91 m, and his style of play have already made the media call him “The New Haaland”, as the player seems to have potential enough to become a scoring machine in the next few years, which could be really great news for Manchester United and Ten Hag. His arrival to Manchester United seems to be very close, and Erik Ten Hag could have this great wonderkid ready to show his talent in the Premier League very soon.
