Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund is eager to build a relationship with his fans.

Hojlund has recalled how he helped one young Denmark fan this season.

"He looked as if he had enjoyed the match and I think I would like to give something back to the fans who travel with me and especially the young ones," he told ViaPlay.

"I myself remember a day when I was up in Elsinore to have a picture taken with Bendtner and Stephan Andersen, and when I came home I was simply so happy. It was one of the best experiences I had had."

That is why the Dane also takes the time to sign autographs and have pictures taken with fans, now that he is a star himself.

"I'm just trying to give back. I've been there myself and I know what that means. It takes us ten seconds, but it might make these boys and girls happy for the rest of the day and several days to come," he says.
