Manchester United is willing to give up Hoylen for Sheshko, and sell at a loss for 30 million

Recently, Simon Stone, a well-known BBC Manchester United reporter, and Manchester United team reporters from the Telegraph and the Daily Mail jointly issued a press release. It is reported that Manchester United intends to sell forward Rasmus Hoylen for £30 million.

The Danish striker scored twice this Wednesday in Chicago against Bournemouth. After the game, he directly found the reporter waiting outside the court and made a statement that although Manchester United has always been interested in introducing RB Leipzig's Slovenian striker Benjamin Scheshko, he himself is still determined to stay at Manchester United.

However, things didn't go so well. Newcastle United also favors Sheshko, but has not reached a transfer agreement with RB Leipzig for the 22-year-old. Manchester United is looking forward to deciding on subsequent transfer strategies. It is reported that Sheshko is more inclined to transfer to Old Trafford.

Manchester United sources swore that they could reach an agreement before selling the players. But it is generally believed that in order to ensure compliance with the Premier League's profitable and sustainable development rules, players must leave the team. Moreover, once Sheshko successfully joins, Hoylen is very likely to be marginalized.

If Manchester United really sells Hoylen for £30 million, it will actually be a loss-making deal. Because the striker's "book value" is as high as £43 million, and the five-year contract he signed has been executed for two years. Manchester United has invested nearly £130 million in signings in Brian Mbemo and Mattus Cunia this summer.
