The player might depart Manchester United on a loan deal that includes a purchase option, with initial talks already underway to facilitate his move away from Old Trafford.

Rasmus Højlund has faced a tough second season at Manchester United, managing just eight goals and four assists in 42 appearances, including five goals in the Europa League group stage. He’s only netted three times in the Premier League, with just one goal in 2025 against Leicester City. His long-term future at Old Trafford is now uncertain.

According to Tuttosport, Juventus are exploring the idea of bringing the former Atalanta striker back to Serie A this summer. The Italian club has reportedly made early contact with his representatives, viewing the potential transfer as a “low-cost” opportunity. They are considering a paid loan deal that includes a purchase option, though no official offer has been made yet.

With Manchester United expected to bolster their attacking options, they may be open to letting either Højlund or Joshua Zirkzee leave. The club reportedly leans toward parting with Højlund due to the possibility of securing a better deal.

Juventus sees the prospect of signing Højlund, especially ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup, as quite attractive. More concrete developments could emerge if the club decides to seriously pursue the Danish international.
