'I'm about to get a dog!' - Rasmus Hojlund reveals what he's doing to block out Man Utd haters after finally ending lengthy goal drought

With Manchester United under constant scrutiny, many players come under fire from former club legends and the media. Hojlund was no exception and had received constant flak for his rough patch in front of goal following his £72m move to Old Trafford from Atalanta in 2023.

However, Hojlund recently ended a frustrating goal drought, scoring in United’s 3-0 win over Leicester City before heading off on international duty with Denmark. Reflecting on his difficult period in front of goal, the Danish striker admitted that his lack of goals had weighed on him and acknowledged that he had desperately wanted to make more of an impact.

Speaking to TipsBladet, Hojlund said: "It has been frustrating. That’s probably the right word to use. It has of course affected me a lot in terms of wanting to get on the scoreboard. I would worry more if it was the other way around and it didn’t work out for me. There’s not much else to say other than that it has of course been a period where I would have liked to have done better.

"I don’t spend that much time on social media. I post occasionally, but otherwise I keep it away and spend my time with my girlfriend now, and my family - and I’m about to get a dog."

Hojlund is set to represent his country in the UEFA Nations League quarter-finals against Portugal. Following his international commitments, he will return to action with United in a Premier League encounter against Nottingham Forest on April 1.
