Manchester United are reportedly looking into the possibility of signing PSG midfielder Marco Verratti this summer.
Anthony Martial has already explained how Rasmus Hojlund's arrival will help him at Manchester United
05.08.2023 - 05:49 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Rasmus Hojlund should become Manchester United's third major signing of the summer in the next 48 hours and, based on a previous admission, Anthony Martial will welcome him with open arms.
Hojlund is expected to be officially confirmed as a United player this weekend, following the agreement of a £72million deal with Atalanta. An initial £64m will head to Bergamo, with £8m set aside for performance and success-related add-ons.
The 20-year-old arrived at Manchester Airport around 4.15pm on Tuesday and has been undergoing medical tests since. He could be announced as a Red when United host RC Lens at Old Trafford this lunchtime.

Erik ten Hag identified a world-class No.9 as his transfer priority early on, with United's 58 Premier League goals the lowest in the top six last season. Wout Weghorst featured regularly once he arrived on loan from Burnley but failed to score in the league.
He returned to Turf Moor this summer, leaving only Martial as a recognised striker. The French international managed six Premier League goals last season but was once again plagued by injury.
He might have hoped to be first-choice next season, but rather than curse his luck at a mega-money arrival in his position, the striker believes Hojlund's arrival will bring out the best in him - as he explained last year.
"We brought in some very good players this summer," the Frenchman told club media in November. "They've adapted very well and we're very happy to have them.
"When there's competition, you have to continue to put in great performances
