‘I really like playing with him’: Rasmus Hojlund reveals world-class Man Utd teammate he enjoys playing alongside

Manchester United star Rasmus Hojlund has revealed he looks up to United teammate Marcus Rashford and enjoys playing alongside him.

“I really like playing with him,” Hojlund is quoted as telling Danish newspaper Tipsbladet.

“He is a world-class player. I enjoy playing with him.

“He’s a player I’ve looked up to, even though he’s only a few years older than me. He has done well since he came in as a 19-year-old and scored against Midtjylland.

“I think he has been a great player ever since, and it is of course great that we are teammates today.”

The Danish striker who moved to Old Trafford from Atalanta in the summer has made an instant impact with three goals already.

Despite Rashford’s struggles this season, there have been signs of him forming a lethal partnership with Hojlund, after they combined for the Dane’s first Old Trafford goal in the Champions League defeat to Galatasaray.
