π¨π©π° BREAKING: Manchester United Submit β¬40M Bid for Morten Hjulmand.
Manchester United have officially submitted a β¬40 million bid for Sporting CPβs Danish midfielder Morten Hjulmand, according to sources close to the negotiations. The Red Devils are pushing to reinforce their midfield options ahead of the new Premier League season, and Erik ten Hag views the 25-year-old as a key target.
Hjulmand, who joined Sporting from Lecce just last summer, has quickly become a vital figure for RΓΊben Amorim’s side. His combative presence, tactical discipline, and ball-winning ability have drawn comparisons to top defensive midfielders across Europe. He made 43 appearances last season, helping Sporting win the Primeira Liga title.
However, Sporting are reluctant to let him go so soon and have rejected Unitedβs initial offer, demanding β¬50 million to even begin formal negotiations. The Portuguese club is under no pressure to sell, as Hjulmand is under contract until 2028 and has a release clause that reflects his growing importance.
United are not alone in their pursuit β Juventus have also been monitoring the player, with reports in Italy suggesting they view Hjulmand as a long-term replacement for Adrien Rabiot. However, Juveβs financial constraints may hand United the edge if they increase their offer.
With Sofyan Amrabat’s future uncertain and Casemiro reportedly attracting interest from Saudi clubs, United are accelerating their efforts to bring in a younger, high-energy midfielder who can anchor the midfield for years to come.
Talks are expected to continue in the coming days. Whether United will return with an improved offer remains to be seen, but Hjulmand is clearly a top name on their shortlist.
