Just In:Man Utd is set to sign a star with a €50 million increase in worth in a year.

Man Utd to UNLEASH star whose worth has risen by €50 million in a year

Rasmus Hojlund will play for Manchester United against Brighton in the Premier League on Saturday, confirming his status as one of the game’s fastest emerging stars.

The Dane has already had a taste of England’s top flight, playing 23 minutes in the Red Devils’ 3-1 loss to Arsenal before the international break, but this will be his first start since joining from Atalanta for €75 million late in the summer transfer window.

His meteoric climb has been astounding.

When the 20-year-old went from Sturm Graz to Atalanta for €20 a year ago, he had an Expected Transfer Value (xTV) of €1.5m.

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.

Indeed, he is already one of Manchester United’s most valued assets, trailing only Bruno Fernandes (€64.3 million), Marcus Rashford (€62.3 million), and Mason Mount (€61.5 million).

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.
