Rasmus Hojlund (22) läuft seit seinem Wechsel 2023 von Atalanta Bergamo zu Manchester United den Erwartungen hinterher. Dem italienischen Portal „Calciomercato“ zufolge, könnte sich nun aber ein Ausweg aus seiner Misere auftun.
Demnach soll Juventus Turin starkes Interesse an einer Verpflichtung des Mittelstürmers haben. Bereits für die Klub-WM hofft die Bianconeri, auf die Dienste Hojlunds zurückgreifen zu können.
[–>Sportdirektor Cristiano Giuntoli habe sogar schon erste Gespräche mit der Spielerseite geführt, um einen Sommer-Deal auszuloten.
Auch Hojlund selbst sei offen für einen Wechsel zurück in die Serie A. Der Däne schaffte immerhin einst bei Atalanta seinen Durchbruch. Als Generationen-Talent kam er dann zu den „Red Devils“, doch in der Premier League konnte er nie wirklich glänzen. In dieser Saison kommt er in 29 Ligaspielen gerade mal auf vier mickrige Tore.
Und obwohl Hojlund noch einen Vertrag bis Ende Juni 2028 besitzt, schaut sich United-Trainer Ruben Amorim (40) wohl schon aktiv nach einem Ersatz um. Auch in der internen Stürmer-Rangordnung soll er inzwischen hinter Ex-Bayern-Star Joshua Zirkzee (23) zurückgefallen sein.
Nach Herzstillstand: Ganzes Stadion rührt gegnerischen Spieler zu Tränen
Bei einem entsprechenden Angebot würden ihn die „Red Devils“ daher wohl liebend gerne ziehen lassen. Ein Schnäppchen dürfte Hojlund aber nicht werden, immerhin blätterte United damals rund 77,8 Millionen Euro Ablöse für ihn auf den Tisch.
Hojlund zurück in die Serie A? Juve auf Stürmersuche
Klar ist: Juve könnte ab Sommer etwas Stürmer-Unterstützung gut gebrauchen. Es wird unter anderem erwartet, dass sich die Mannschaft von Igor Tudor von Arek Milik (31) trennen wird. Der polnische Nationalspieler hat in der laufenden Spielzeit mit Verletzungen zu kämpfen und ist in dieser noch kein einziges Mal zum Einsatz gekommen.
Zudem ist Ex-Frankfurter Randal Kolo Muani (26) nur bis Ende Juni von PSG ausgeliehen und muss voraussichtlich vor der Klub-WM nach Frankreich zurückkehren. Dazu läuft auch noch der Vertrag von Dušan Vlahović (25) aus.
Könnte Hojlund bald diese Stürmer-Lücke füllen?

Gregg Popovich is still laughing at himself as he steps back from coaching
SAN ANTONIO — It was easy to see Monday morning that Gregg Popovich, despite ongoing effects of a stroke he suffered in November, remains every bit the same “Coach Pop” who won more games than any coach in NBA history — 1,592.The 76-year-old can still laugh at himself. Those who know the San Antonio Spurs’ legendary coach and executive best understand how important that is to a man who loves a joke, often at his own expense.AdvertisementPopovich’s appearance at a news conference at which the Spurs announced Mitch Johnson would be Popovich’s successor was a surprise to most. After opening remarks from Peter John Holt, the team’s managing partner, Hall of Famers Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili escorted Popovich to the podium to address the public for the first time since the stroke. A few moments into the event, Popovich […]
Ravens’ release of Justin Tucker brings record-breaking era to embarrassing, inevitable end
Justin Tucker’s No. 9 jersey has been more visible in the stands at M&T Bank Stadium than that of any other current Baltimore Ravens player, except two-time league MVP Lamar Jackson’s No. 8.As the most accurate kicker in NFL history and the gold standard at his position for over a decade, Tucker has already made a strong case for induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. His spot in the Ravens’ Ring of Honor felt like a lock several years ago.AdvertisementNow, Tucker’s 13-season run with the Ravens is over. His career is in jeopardy, too.On Monday, the Ravens moved on from the veteran kicker, who has been accused by 16 massage therapists of sexually inappropriate behavior during bodywork sessions. The allegations, which include Tucker intentionally exposing his genitals and brushing some of the therapists’ thighs with his fingers, were […]

Islanders have no GM but plenty of excitement after winning the NHL Draft’s No. 1 pick
It was perfect. Sixteen hockey executives in little Zoom rectangles on the ESPN screen at 7 p.m. on Monday — 15 general managers and one Miracle on Ice/four-time Stanley Cup winner.Ken Morrow, who has been an Islander since he shed his U.S. hockey jersey in February of 1980 — first for a decade as a player and now for three-plus decades as head of scouting — represented the Isles for the NHL Draft Lottery. With Lou Lamoriello relieved of duties two weeks ago as president and GM and no one yet named to replace him, Morrow was the man on the scene.AdvertisementAnd, armed with about the same win probability as the team of Americans had in 1980 against the USSR, Morrow watched the ping-pong balls pop up in the Isles’ favor.They won it!Now, uh … Does anyone want to make […]
Kings coach Jim Hiller retains ‘status quo’ attitude amid uncertainty after Rob Blake’s departure
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. – Jim Hiller has coached the Los Angeles Kings for just 16 months — if you count his time on interim status — but he has been in the business long enough to know how things can work when a team’s management structure changes.On Monday, the Kings and general manager Rob Blake separated after eight seasons. This was no blindside move. Blake didn’t have a contract for next season and there weren’t any talks toward renewal. Hiller didn’t know about Blake’s future and, in a March interview with The Athletic, said he hadn’t asked.AdvertisementThat day, Hiller also offered a defense of his boss and the work he had done – even knowing that uncertainty about Blake’s future could one day cloud his own.“I would say if you look back from seven years ago to today, I would […]
Reds’ Tyler Callihan departs game with broken forearm after crashing into wall
ATLANTA — Cincinnati Reds rookie Tyler Callihan left Monday’s game after he ran into the wall in left field at Truist Park trying to make a diving catch. Playing in his fourth big-league game, the 24-year-old Callihan walked off the field under his own power, but he appeared to suffer a serious arm injury.AdvertisementWith a runner on first and two out in the third inning, Matt Olson lined an opposite-field fly ball down the left-field line. Callihan raced over and attempted to make a catch just inside the line. The ball was briefly in his glove before he collided awkwardly and at full speed with the padded wall in foul territory, the force of the collision bending his left arm at a gruesome angle as his entire body crashed into the wall.The ball popped out and he immediately took off […]
