uk Search Man Utd could secure one of the bargains of the summer to find Rasmus Hojlund a Premier League partner.

Toney joined from Peterborough in a PS10million deal in 2020 before scoring 31 times in 45 games to help Thomas Frank's side secure promotion from the Championship.

Last season, only Erling Haaland (36) and Harry Kane (30) bettered Toney's 20-goal tally in the Premier League, which reportedly sparked interest from Arsenal and Chelsea.

In January, Sky Sports claimed that Brentford were demanding PS100m from any interested party eyeing a swoop at the end of his ban.

According to Sky Germany, Toney is set to be valued between PS30m and PS40m this summer, and many Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Chelsea and West Ham United, are circling.

United are also bound to be in the frame as they prepare to replace Anthony Martial, who will leave Old Trafford as a free agent once his contract expires in July.

In November, the Mail claimed that Ratcliffe was planning to direct his new-look recruitment department towards homegrown talent.

Rasmus Hojlund needs support, but the 21-year-old has shown glimpses that suggest Erik ten Hag was correct in pursuing a PS72m deal to lure him from Atalanta as an alternative to Harry Kane.

However, a maximum of PS40m for a striker of Toney's calibre could be too good an opportunity to refuse, and it would provide Hojlund with a more experienced partner to help develop his game.
