Various journos have come out saying basically the same thing:

I don't really like assurances from one side of a deal before it's done. Let's get it over the line already.

Atalanta did just sign a Striker for close to 30m euros, so it seems this Hojlund Saga is getting close to being done.

Aha, that is actually encouraging to hear!
