Manchester United's summer signing Rasmus Hojlund has received glowing praise from a teammate.
Club captain Bruno Fernandes has lavished praise on Hojlund, despite the Denmark international being talked down by a previous coach.
Christian Mouroux - sporting director at an amateur club, Horsholm Usserod Idraetsklub (HUI), stated to Daily Mail: "His two younger brothers - twins Emil and Oscar - were more obvious talents. Rasmus wasn't a standout. There were other players his age just as good. His talents you see today came much later. I won't lie, I'm very surprised by how much Rasmus went for."
"He was playing for the age group above because he was physically so big, so he was more developed in that way," Mouroux continued. "But there was no single moment when we thought he was going to be a star. Signing for a team who've bought him to perform now, it's surprising."
Fernandes had a different opinion, stating: "He's someone who is always trying to speak to everyone, he is a kid that what I have seen until now who obviously wants to work he wants to get into the team.
"He wants to be fit as soon as possible and I think he will bring us a lot of energy, a lot of strength and hopefully a lot goals too.
"I want to build that connection with him, as well as building that connection with the other wingers and the other strikers because I've always said I'm here and everyone behind them is here to serve them. We want them to feel happy, to feel that the ball is coming they will get their chances and obviously it's about them getting their goals and that's what we want."
