Atalanta is closely monitoring Højlund's situation with serious consideration of bringing him back to Bergamo. Having recently lost Mateo Retegui and facing the potential loss of Ademola Lookman, Atalanta views Højlund's reintegration into Ivan Juric's system as an appealing possibility. The primary challenge is his salary, which is deemed excessive by Italian standards, prompting the consideration of a loan deal with an option to buy. For this arrangement, Manchester United would need to subsidize a significant portion of his salary. Nonetheless, Manchester United reportedly favors a loan deal within England. According to Transfermarkt, Højlund's current market value is estimated at 35.00 million euros.
