The muscular issue that has kept the Denmark international out of his team’s previous three games has been felt in the Premier League, where the Red Devils have dropped their last two games in the top division of England, 2-1 to Fulham and 3-1 to Manchester City.

The forward made his final game for the Red Devils on February 18 at Kenilworth Road against Luton Town, when he scored a brace as Ten Hag’s team won 2-1.

In Hojlund’s absence, Marcus Rashford has operated through the middle of the field; but, despite scoring against Man City in the Manchester derby on Sunday, the Englishman has struggled there.

It took until Boxing Day for Hojlund to score his first Premier League goal, but in 30 games since joining Man United, he has 13 goals and 2 assists.Following Hojlund’s final game against Luton, Ten Hag informed reporters, “We recruited him on his character.” “I was aware of its power.

аs а Mаnchester United striker, yоu need sоmeоne whо cаn perfоrm well under pressure, аnd he hаs thаt quаlity. He remаins cоnfident аnd dоes nоt becоme аnxiоus. He exudes cоnfidence, аnd I hаve nо dоubt thаt he will аchieve even higher.

“He was calm even though he required assistance. He had bad luck at first. He never gives up, proving that he is a fighter.”

Man United is still vying for FA Cup glory this season, but with six points separating them from fifth-place Tottenham Hotspur and eleven separating them from fourth-place Aston Villa in the Premier League standings, they will have a difficult time qualifying for the Champions League next season.
