Personal terms agreed: A red hot Midfielder wanted by Arsenal have agreed personal terms on a 4yr deal to join Man United – Date fixed to complete deal imminently – He will be Ten Hag second signing
In the past few months, Morten Hjulmand has been linked to Manchester United a few times. Now that the 24-year-old had a good exhibition and scored against England at the Euros, it’s time for those rumours to get stronger, and also bring in a move for Gonçalo Inácio.
Portuguese newspaper A Bola today shares a story which is basically to say that any club who wants the Danish star will need to pay the Lions €80m for the move.
That’s the price for of release clause, and since he’s considered one of the ‘untouchables’ at Sporting, there’s simply no desire for negotiations with Manchester United or anyone else for his exit.
The midfielder joined the Lionsion a €19.5m move from Lecce last season, and one year was enough to prove the club can hit the jackpot again. First with the Portuguese title campaign and now with the Euro 2024. It was the English media who first said the Old Trafford side are interested, just like the Spanish press said Barcelona want him.
Sporting have big plans for Hjulmand next season, claiming his leadership profile could even lead him to be a captain at some point. The armband could be worn by another Manchester United target, Gonçalo Inácio, for whom the Red Devils are also ‘preparing to advance’, A Bola says.
In that case, he has a €60m release clause. So we’ll see how much Erik ten Hag’s side will spend at the Alvalade club this summer.
