Manchester United have decided to sell striker Rasmus Højlund in the current summer transfer window as they actively seek his departure.
According to football transfer expert Jacobs Ben, Man United have valued Højlund at £40 million.
The price tag represents a £10 million increase from a previously understood valuation of £30 million.
Højlund, however, wants to stay and fight for his place at Old Trafford.
The Denmark international has attracted interest from RB Leipzig, as well as clubs in Serie A and Saudi Arabia.
This development comes just days after former Manchester United defender Mikaël Silvestre urged manager Rúben Amorim not to rush into sending Højlund out on loan, despite the Red Devils being set to sign RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Šeško.
Meanwhile, in another development, Chelsea have confirmed that 17-year-old midfielder Lola Brown has left the club to join Crystal Palace on a season-long loan.
Brown joined Chelsea’s Women’s team in the 2019/2020 campaign, going on to play for their Under-12s side.
She signed her first professional contract with the Blues after being voted the club’s Women’s Academy U18 Player of the Year for the 2023/24 campaign.
