Earlier on Thursday, we covered a claim from Calciomercato that Arsenal, Juventus, Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund have shown interest in Rasmus Højlund.
It was also explained that the Serie A side won’t have it easy to sign the Atalanta player in the next window.
Sport have a report on the forward, focusing on Arsenal and the La Liga winners. The Denmark international has 13 goals and five assists to his name since joining Atalanta last summer.
His displays have pleased both the Gunners and Los Blancos, and these two sides are set for a transfer ‘war’ to secure the 20-year-old’s services.
It’s further claimed Mikel Arteta’s side and Real Madrid have ‘already enquired’ about the conditions needed to carry out the potential operation in the summer.
The Serie A club paid €17m in bringing Højlund to the club and offered him a deal until 2027. Gian Piero Gasperini’s side would be willing to sanction the player’s sale after this season if they were to receive a bid around €50m.
Sport state everything indicates Atalanta will receive a bid for Højlund. Whether it’ll be from Arsenal, Real Madrid or another club remains to be seen.
