According to The Telegraph, United are keen on signing Hojbjerg from Tottenham and the North London club have offered them the chance to open talks.
Earlier in the transfer window, the Danish international appeared to be headed for Atletico Madrid when Spurs accepted a £30 million offer.
Hojbjerg, however, was unable to reach a personal understanding with the Spaniards, and the deal fell through.
Now it’s Ten Hag who is after the 28-year-old as he looks to add depth to his midfield which has already taken a hit through the injury of Mason Mount.
The Dutch boss has previously worked with Hojbjerg during his time as manager of Bayern Munich II.

Red Devils fans aren’t too impressed with Ten Hag’s latest target though with many of them taking to social media to voice their frustrations.
One fan wrote: “Manchester United need to sack this man.”
Whilst another added: “What is it with this guy and former players?”
A third commented: “I can’t go through the pain of another ten Hag Alumni!”
One other fan simply pleaded that it had to stop, posting: “Please, that’s enough.”

It is unknown if United would move the negotiations with Tottenham forward, but Ten Hag is reportedly eager to sign a midfielder before the transfer market closes on Friday.
It’s possible that more Spurs players will also leave for Old Trafford in the final days of the transfer window in addition to Hojbjerg.
According to rumors, United may be considering a deal for Spurs full-back Sergio Reguilon as a result of Luke Shaw’s injury.
