Rasmus Hojlund endured a torrid 2024-25 campaign in the Premier League, finishing the season with just four goals in the league.
His lack of confidence in front of goal became a recurring theme.
Behind the scenes, the situation grew increasingly bleak.

Staff at Carrington were left unconvinced by his development.
Even to the extent where the 22-year-old was even placed ‘on trial’, with his future hanging in the balance.
Despite arriving for £73 million from Atalanta with high expectations, Hojlund has struggled to adapt to the Premier League’s demands.
He is expected to leave the club this summer.
The Red Devils are still in the process of completing a move for Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford, which could further open the door for Hojlund’s exit.
Roma have been mentioned as a potential possibility, although nothing is yet concrete.
Now, AC Milan have emerged as a serious contender to bring the Danish striker back to Serie A, according to SportMediaset, via SempreMilan.

Milan are reshaping their striker department after a disappointing domestic campaign.
Santiago Gimenez remains the only senior centre-forward in the squad.
Lorenzo Colombo is also expected to depart, leaving a clear need for reinforcements ahead of the 2025-26 season.
The Rossoneri have been linked with names like Dusan Vlahovic and Victor Boniface.
However Hojlund – who is well remembered for his time at Atalanta, is now under serious consideration.
The report claims Milan are working behind the scenes to assess the feasibility of a deal.
A loan move featuring an option or obligation to buy is seen as the likeliest structure.
Hojlund has scored 26 goals in 95 appearances for United, but just four in the league last season.
A return to Italy could offer the reset he badly needs.
