British sports bible reported on the 27th (Korea time) 'Manchester United wants Rasmus Hoylun to be released'
Hoyleun is a promising striker brought in by Manchester United in the summer 2023 transfer market by paying a huge amount of 85 million euros (about 128 billion won). His performance in Atalanta, which he joined through Denmark's prestigious Copenhagen and Austria, was enough to raise expectations. In his first Serie A season, he played 20 games as a starter in the league, scoring nine goals and two assists.
Although there were ups and downs, it was widely evaluated that the tremendous line breaking, strong shooting, and forward pressure that penetrated the defensive line would not fall far behind in the English Premier League (EPL).

This season's performance was not much different. Hoylun, who played in 28 official matches, had only seven goals and one assist. Among them, five goals and one assist were the offensive points recorded in the European Europa League (UEL) game against the power. He shook the opponent's net only twice in the league.
It was the lackluster performance of the previous Fulham match that made Manchester United leaders feel frustrated. Hoyleun, who started the 23rd round of the EPL against Fulham on the 27th, played 58 minutes and recorded disastrous results with 0 shots, 0 key passes, 0% dribbling success rate and 20% ball competition success rate. It is difficult to expect him to be a player who will solve Manchester United's chronic frontline striker problem. The end of the slump was consideration of release.

Manchester United's huge investment in recruitment continues to fail. Antony, who recently left for Real Betis on loan, is a prime example. Antony was a large recruit, with Manchester United investing 81.3 million pounds (about 145 billion won). If Antony and Hoyleun leave Manchester United failing, the Manchester United leadership's agony over huge investments will inevitably deepen.
