In a fresh update from Fabrizio Romano, the Italian journalist claims Manchester United now feel they’ve reached a point in talks where they feel confident enough to attack the deal.

United fans will want to see a total agreement soon because the new season is just around the corner. The first-team didn’t have a vocal point up front last season and we’ve missed one yet again throughout pre-season.
A young forward like Hojlund is going to need time to settle.
One interesting factor to consider is how we’re not getting any briefing from Italy to suggest Hojlund will be at Atalanta next season. They be already be planning for life without the young Dane.
United need a new centre-forward before the new season starts.
