Inter Open Talks with Rasmus Højlund’s Camp as Striker Search Heats Up
Inter Milan have opened preliminary talks with the representatives of Rasmus Højlund, as the Serie A champions begin to intensify their search for a new forward ahead of the 2025/26 season. Sources confirm that initial contact has been made in recent days, with the Danish international emerging as one of the club’s primary targets.
As exclusively revealed earlier this week, Højlund is among the top names on Inter’s striker shortlist, which also includes Ange-Yoan Bonny from Parma, a younger option admired for his physicality and potential.
Højlund on Inter’s Radar – What’s the Appeal?
The Manchester United forward endured a mixed campaign in the Premier League but remains highly rated across Europe due to his blend of athleticism, movement, and finishing ability. Inter see him as a player who fits well within Simone Inzaghi’s tactical setup, and believe he could thrive in Serie A with more regular starts and a system that complements his strengths.
With United facing an uncertain summer under Rúben Amorim and looking to balance their books after a disappointing season, Inter sense an opportunity to explore a potential deal—whether permanent or a structured loan with options.
Competition and Considerations
Højlund, who joined United for around £72m from Atalanta, still has several years left on his contract, so any deal would likely be complex and require creative structuring. While Inter have made contact, it’s understood talks are still at an early exploratory stage.
Additionally, Inter are closely monitoring Parma’s Ange-Yoan Bonny, who offers a different profile—more of a long-term project but with strong Serie A potential and a more economical price tag. His development in Serie B has caught the attention of multiple Italian clubs.
What Happens Next
More discussions are expected in the coming weeks as Inter firm up their transfer plans. Højlund’s situation will likely depend heavily on United’s summer overhaul, their willingness to negotiate, and the player’s own preferences. For now, Inter have signaled strong interest—and it’s clear he is very much on their radar.
