Despite Manchester United’s recent troubles, Rasmus Hojlund has been a bright spot in recent games.
Rasmus Hojlund has started playing again for Manchester United after overcoming his injury worries.
During the summer transfer window, the striker, who earns £84,000 per week (Corriere della Sera), moved from Atalanta to United.
The 20-year-old Danish international is making an impression for Manchester United and has earned the admiration of Gary Lineker, a former Tottenham Hotspur striker and BBC One Match of the Day commentator.
Rasmus Hojlund has impressed for Manchester United
At the Emirates Stadium in North London versus Arsenal, Hojlund performed well after being brought on as a substitute.
The 20-year-old stood out for the Red Devils despite United’s poor performance and result.
The young striker started the match at Old Trafford against Brighton and Hove Albion and once again made a name for himself by finding attacking space in the box and irritating the opposition’s defense.
Hojlund scored one of United’s goals in the team’s midweek defeat to Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League.
On Saturday night in the Premier League, United will play Burnley away from home at Turf Moor.
The United manager, Erik ten Hag, is very likely to start Hojlund in the lineup.
Burnley’s poor performance this year has led many to believe that the Red Devils will prevail.
Erik ten Hag praise for Rasmus Hojlund
Prior to the game, Ten Hag expressed confidence that Hojlund will score goals frequently.On the official United website, Ten Hag said the following about Hojlund: “Yeah, but we know he can score, so we are happy. He has been given the chance to play now, and as I’ve already said, I have no doubt that he will score goals.It would be interesting to see how Hojlund, 20, manages the strain of constantly scoring goals for what is likely the largest team in England. He is now United’s primary striker.
