MANCHESTER UNITED fans are convinced that Rasmus Hojlund will join the club after he revealed he has the same agent as Erik ten Hag.
The Atalanta striker is one of Man United’s striker targets this summer as the club looks to bolster its attacking options.
And United’s hopes of landing the Dane appear to have been boosted as he has joined the SEG agency, which also represents Ten Hag.
Hojlund, 20, told media at the national team camp in Helsingør: “I have got someone [an agent company]. But they are on a trial period.
“It’s a trial period, and that’s all I can say.”
The Athletic have previously reported that the agency is that of the SEG agency.

When asked about the rumoured interest from Man United, Hojlund admitted that people will have to “wait and see”.
He added: “It is a huge club, so I must have done something right if it says that they want me.
“We have to see what happens. As you see and hear, I could well imagine that a lot could happen in relation to a couple of strikers this summer.
“There are many clubs that lack a nine, so something will definitely happen in relation to that, and then we will have to see if I am in it.”
