Victor Boniface, the striker for Bayer Leverkusen, is close to completing a loan deal with AC Milan, which could put an end to Rasmus Hojlund’s transfer to the Serie A giants.

Hojlund had been a target for Milan to sign from Manchester United on loan.

The Denmark forward, 22, has stalled on a deal because the negotiating process did not include a purchase requirement.

Similar deals have already been made for Boniface by Milan, but the latter has the option to make the move for the Nigerian a permanent one starting in the summer.

After suffering a thigh injury that could keep him out for up to four months, Napoli are also on the lookout for a number nine.

Hojlund announced earlier this month that, despite having an inconsistent first couple of seasons, he would stay at United.

His organization has since signed Slovenian international Benjamin Sesko for a sum of $ 73.7 million.

Hojlund was then completely dropped from Ruben Amorim’s squad for the Premier League defeat by Arsenal, who had then been rested throughout United’s final pre-season game against Fiorentina.
