Morten Hjurmand has been linked with a move to the Premier League in recent months, with Manchester United interested in him.
Manchester United are leading the race to sign the 26-year-old Denmark international midfielder, according to soccer sources, despite his links with Manchester City. The player is also reportedly pushing for a move to the Premier League.
Manchester City were also linked with the player, but they do not see him as a priority target. They are interested in signing Elliott Anderson from Nottingham Forest.
Manchester United are now certain of signing the player and have also expressed interest in signing him. It remains to be seen whether the Red Devils can close out a deal. We need more quality and depth in the middle of the park.
Casemiro is set to leave the club in the summer and the team needs a replacement. The 26-year-old will add physicality and defensive cover to the team. He is at the peak of his career and has proven his quality with Sporting CP in Portugal.
His contract includes a release clause of 80 million euros, but it would be reasonable to think he could be acquired for a more reasonable sum. It remains to be seen whether Manchester United will take over their interest and conclude a deal with a formal offer.
If we want to compete for major trophies next season, we need to improve in the middle of the park. They are aiming for a top-three finish in the Premier League this season and will aim to improve even further next year.
Yurmand will also want to prove his quality at the highest level. A move to Manchester United would be ideal for him.
