Rasmus Hojlund has sent a message to those who question his abilities in front of goal, the Danish international whooping transfer fee from Atlanta to England has not gone as planned but he managed to score 15 times.
Hojlund told France Football: “When I was little I scored a lot of goals. I always did. But it’s by working a lot that you become a killer, by repeating the drills: right foot, left foot, volleys, shoulder positioning. And then as you grow up, you also become much better off the field.
“Here in Manchester that’s what happened, my approach to the game became a lot more professional. I learned one thing you have to be very fresh on the match day. I know my level, I know that I can play very well. But if I recover badly, with the matches that we have every three days here then it can be complicated.”
He added: “Manchester United is so big, the Premier League is so huge… people are obviously more focused on you than before. It was hard at the beginning. Now, I am much calmer, I no longer worry too much about what is said. I know that I am a good player and that if I get chances, I will score a lot of goals.”
Hojlund will be looking to add to his tally when Manchester United travels to Brighton on their last match this season, European football may not come this time around and the team will have all the energy to prepare both for the pre-season and player recruitment.
