Manchester United attacker Rasmus Hojlund has been linked with a move away from the club during the summer transfer window, and the player is aware of his situation at the club.
Recent reports have confirmed that Manchester United want to sign Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig. Christopher Vivell is leading their pursuit of the 22-year-old Bundesliga striker, and Hojlund could be on his way out of the club if the deal gets done.
