'It's poor' - Ben Foster slams Rasmus Hojlund after it's claimed Man Utd forward smashed piece of Denmark goalkeeper's tooth out with stray elbow during training session

<p>Hermansen said the incident between him and fellow Danish international Hojlund took place during a set-piece drill before Euro 2024. The 24-year-old added that the striker clattered into him but did not hold any ill will towards the former Atalanta ace. However, ex-Wrexham and Red Devils keeper Foster said that it was "poor" from Hojlund.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>On Foster's <em>'Fozcast' podcast</em>, Hermansen said: "You know as a goalkeeper sometimes when you have set-piece practice. It's like 'Are we going 100 per cent? Are we just a bit easy?' So we were with the national team just before the Euros, it was optional training, you could come in and train if you want. So let's do some corners. I go: 'Keepers!' And he just comes in with everything, elbow straight to my tooth. I took a corner off when I was younger as well so it was just the same bit of plastic."</p><p>Foster responded: "Cheers Rasmus, appreciate that. That's rubbish that. I'm not having that, it's poor. When you're doing it in a bit of practice set-piece thing, you've got to take it easy. You can't go full-blooded like that."</p><p>To which the Foxes ace replied: "He is that kind of guy and I love that about him. He's giving everything, always. He's just got an exceptional way of being a professional."</p>

WHAT BEN FOSTER AND MADS HERMANSEN SAID

<p>Other than his tooth coming out, no harm was done and it appears there is no beef between Hermansen and Hojlund. The Danes went onto lose in the last 16 of the Euros this summer and now their goal is to help their country qualify for the 2026 World Cup. For the keeper, he will also focus on keeping Leicester in the Premier League, while Hojlund wants to fire United to trophy success.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Hojlund could feature for United in their home clash against Brentford on Saturday afternoon, whereas Hermansen travels to lowly Southampton at the same time as the Premier League returns following the international break.</p>
