Rasmus Hojlund reveals what Casemiro told him after his debut against Arsenal
New Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund has revealed what Casemiro told him after his debut against Arsenal on Sunday.
The Denmark international joined United in a £72million deal from Atalanta this summer but a back issue delayed his debut.
“He just says something in Spanish: ‘vamos’ or something like that,” Hojlund said as quoted by Metro.
“He was happy that I gave the team perhaps a slightly different dynamic than what you get from Martial.
“He’s maybe a little more technically strong and looks down the gaps where I like to take the fights. After all, he hasn’t seen me play before, so he told me he was pleasantly surprised to see me play.”
Hojlund showed early glimpses of his high intensity levels and strength on Sunday, immediately throwing himself into physical battles with Arsenal defenders.
