Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag may offer Amad Diallo to Atalanta to sweeten a deal for Rasmus Hojlund.

La Dea have slapped a €100m price-tag on the Denmark striker.

United regard the fee as unrealistic and are urging Atalanta to be serious about negotiating terms.

Placing Amad back at Atalanta on-loan is an option the table to encourage talks.

Journalist Steve Bates is reporting Ten Hag could offer Amad back to La Dea on loan in an attempt to reduce Hojlund's asking price.

Amad, who spent last season on loan at Sunderland, joined United from Atalanta in 2021.
