'The club desperately need' - Dwight Yorke tells Rasmus Hojlund how to succeed at Manchester United

manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Manchester United's new striker Rasmus Hojlund has been told he needs to be making runs and holding the ball up if he wishes to cement a starting place at Old Trafford.

The Danish striker joined the Reds a week before the season began but was unable to come straight into the starting line-up due to an injury sustained during pre-season with Atalanta.

Fortunately, Hojlund has recovered and prior to the international break he came on for a 30-minute cameo against Arsenal. United fans were impressed by his work ethic and the troubles he caused the Gunners' defence and despite not getting a goal, he looked to be a bigger threat than Anthony Martial who he replaced.

Perhaps his big test will come this weekend when the 20-year-old is widely expected to start against Brighton and Hove Albion.
