Rasmus Hojlund has just completed his medicals and is set to be announced as a new Manchester United player. The Dane has been United’s top striking target for the summer. Manager Erik Ten Hag is finally landing his man after extensive negotiations with the Italian side Atlanta. The Manchester United fan base has been abuzz with excitement over the signing of the 20-year-old. Several other fans wonder how special the Danish attacker has been to sign three professional contracts at this age. An in-depth analysis of Rasmus Hojlund career goals will help shed more light on the quality of the youngster.
Player statistics
The 2003-born player has raked in 27 goals so far in his career. He has played 87 matches in his professional career scoring 27 goals throughout that period. Nine were scored last season as a player at Atalanta in Italy. Those were the league goals he scored in the 27 games he featured in. He started the season as a substitute before becoming a top marksman, a man the club could bank on. He scored four goals in 6 appearances for his national team, Denmark.
These numbers have, however, failed to impress a faction of football enthusiasts who regard Rasmus Hojlund career goals underwhelming for such a price tag. This group expected Hojlund to have tallied better than whatever he had offered so far. However, he is still young and with lots of potential. Let us watch how Erik Ten Hag handles him this coming season.
