Manchester United are still looking to offload several members of their senior squad with only ten days left in the summer transfer window.

The Red Devils have their “bomb squad” that they’re looking to sell this summer, or at very least, loan with options and obligations to buy at the end of the sesaon.

Already Marcus Rashford has secured a loan move to Barcelona with the option for them to buy him for £26 million plus add-ons, with the England international making his LaLiga debut last weekend.

Now that leaves Antony, Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho and Tyrell Malacia also looking for exits, with Rasmus Hojlund also joining those set to depart this summer.

Recently Sancho has been reported to be on the brink of a move to AS Roma as the final piece of the puzzle lies with the hefty agent’s commission which led to his move to Juventus collapsing.

Real Betis are still looking to push for Antony in any way they can, with the idea of partially buying him still on the cards.

Meanwhile, Garnacho has his heart set on a move to Stamford Bridge with Chelsea whilst Malacia is yet to have any clear links to any one club.

Now, Fabrizio Romano has reported that Napoli are advancing talks with Hojlund to try and lure him back to Serie A.

Despite his poor performances for Manchester United, failing to provide consistency in front of goal, the Denmark international is still held in high regard in Italy after his stint with Atalanta.

As such, Fabrizio Romano has reported that Napoli are keen to sign the striker, having contacted his camp with contract terms and pitching their long-term project which reportedly has gone positively.

With United also keen to offload the 22-year-old, The Red Devils are ready to enter into negotiations with Napoli should the Serie A champions agree terms with Rasmus Hojlund.
