Manchester United to make Rasmus Hojlund transfer announcement today
manchestereveningnews.co.ukManchester United are due to announce the signing of Rasmus Hojlund prior to kick-off against Lens today. United had planned to confirm Hojlund's arrival in midweek but it was delayed after the 20-year-old travelled to London on Thursday for extensive examinations as part of his medical, which he completed later that day.
Hojlund arrived in Manchester later than planned on Tuesday afternoon but has already been to United's Carrington training complex and is set to be paraded at Old Trafford today.
