Rasmus Hojlund was signed from Atalanta for an initial £64 million in 2023. The young striker had an eventful first season at Old Trafford, scoring 16 goals, though his performance was inconsistent throughout the campaign. He opened his account for the campaign by scoring in a 3-3 draw with Porto, and then netted his first league goal of the 2024/25 season against Brentford last weekend. Paul Scholes shared his thoughts on Hojlund’s recent performances, particularly praising his contribution in the match against Brentford.
Paul Scholes said, “I was really impressed with Hojlund, especially the last couple of weeks. He showed real quality in that game on Saturday (vs Brentford), a brilliant goal. Hojlund needs that support, he needs that help and if you give this lad chances he will score goals.”
Additionally, Scholes highlighted the importance of teamwork and the role of key players in facilitating Hojlund’s success. Commenting on Bruno Fernandes’ assist for Hojlund’s goal, Scholes mentioned that Fernandes should remain in close proximity to Hojlund and provide the necessary support.
