United have agreed a deal with Atalanta to sign the striker and he is poised to become Erik ten Hag’s third signing of the summer after the clubs agreed a deal worth €75m (£64m) plus £10m (£8m) in add-ons.

Personal terms have been agreed with the Denmark international set to sign a five-year deal at Old Trafford with the option of a further year.

According to The Athletic, the move is progressing, and the 20-year-old will travel to Manchester on Tuesday for his medical.

Hojlund’s preference has always been a move to United with Ten Hag making him a top target after the Red Devils were priced out of a transfer for Harry Kane.

Atalanta were in pre-season action on Saturday against Bournemouth with Hojlund not featuring ahead of his summer switch.

Hojlund is thought to have said his goodbyes to his team-mates with his arrival at Old Trafford expected imminently.

He was handed his first senior cap for Denmark last September and has scored six goals in six games for the national side.

Hojlund registered nine goals and four assists across 32 Serie A games for Atalanta last term.

United have been in urgent need of more firepower this summer having relied heavily on Marcus Rashford last season.
