Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund is in "good shape" as he prepares to represent Denmark during the international break, which is a welcome message to fans after the £72m summer signing initially saw his debut for the club delayed by injury. Having been unveiled on the Old Trafford pitch ahead of United's pre-season Game against Lens in early August, Hojlund had to wait until last weekend for his first appearance. The 20-year-old Dane, who carries the weight of expectation on his shoulders given the enormous price paid for him, had just over half an hour on the pitch in the 3-1 defeat to Arsenal – he arrived in the 67th minute but then the match had more than 10 minutes of stoppage time. Hojlund showed plenty of promise during his cameo and United supporters can be buoyed by the fact that Denmark national team coach Kasper Hjulmand was impressed by the performance.
