Football insiders in Denmark were “shocked” by the significant transfer fee Manchester United paid for Rasmus Hojlund last summer, according to sources. Bryan King, a former senior scout for Tottenham, Aston Villa, and Everton with extensive connections in Scandinavian football, expressed surprise at United’s £72 million investment in the Danish international.
Hojlund, signed under manager Erik ten Hag, has struggled to meet expectations, scoring only one Premier League goal despite netting five times in United’s unsuccessful Champions League campaign. King criticized the player’s performance, labeling him a poor signing, and questioned Ten Hag’s managerial impact at Old Trafford.
The scrutiny on Ten Hag’s recruitment has intensified amid Manchester United’s struggles in the Premier League, currently sitting ninth with a low goal tally for the season.
