The Serie A club, on the other hand, had recognized his potential after scoring six goals in the Austrian Bundesliga the previous season and pounced.

The Italians virtually doubled their money in a year, but Hojlund’s worth has increased even more dramatically. The youngster now has an xTV of €52 million, up more than €50 million from a year ago.

Manchester United’s most valuable playersTransfer Value (xTV)
€64.3 million for Bruno Fernandes
Marcus Rashford is worth €62.3 million.
Mason Mount has a €61.5 million budget.
Rasmus Hojlund has a net worth of €51.9 million.
Antony €50.6 million
Will Hojlund make his debut against Brighton?
Despite only coming off the bench for Denmark against Finland in a midweek Euro 2024 qualifier, Hojlund is almost expected to feature against Brighton.
Manager Erik ten Hag is lacking in attacking alternatives, with Antony and Jadon Sancho both ruled out. Given Anthony Martial’s recent injury difficulties, Marcus Rashford is likely to play wide, leaving Hojlund as the sole plausible option at centre-forward.
The young Dane, who has been suffering from a back ailment, should so start for Manchester United.
