Garnacho has just five words to say about what Man United fans are going to get from Rasmus Højlund
Alejandro Garnacho, a prominent player for Manchester United, has provided insights into what he and Rasmus Hojlund could potentially bring to the Red Devils in the future, which is likely to excite United supporters.
In recent events concerning Manchester United, they suffered a controversial 3-1 loss to Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, with late goals from Declan Rice and Gabriel Jesus securing a win for the Gunners, as reported by BBC Sport. Manchester United currently stands fourth in the Premier League table after four games, with six points out of a possible twelve. The match was marred by controversy, including a disallowed goal from Garnacho that would have given them a 2-1 lead in the dying moments, a decision made by the video assistant referee.
Manager Erik ten Hag explained why he had to substitute both Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof during the game, stating, “Victor was ill, so he had to come off.” This led to Jonny Evans and Harry Maguire forming the central defensive pairing. Regarding Martinez, Ten Hag mentioned that he was experiencing foot issues but wasn’t sure if it was an injury, stating, “It is imperative that we observe, wait, and diagnose.”
Gaston Edul, a journalist from TyC Sports, confirmed that Martinez had joined the Argentina squad for upcoming games against Ecuador and Bolivia and that tests showed he was injury-free.
As for Rasmus Hojlund, he expressed his pride in making his debut in Manchester United colors on Instagram, saying, “So proud to make my debut. The dream came true. Not fortunate with today’s result… but we’ll bounce back after the international break.” In response, Argentine international player Alejandro Garnacho simply commented on Hojlund’s post with the words “we will be back, together” along with both players’ jersey numbers.
Their first encounter together resulted in a loss, but Hojlund and Garnacho are likely to play significant roles in Manchester United’s attack in the years to come, giving fans reason to be optimistic about the future.
In terms of Manchester United’s next steps, new signing Sofyan Amrabat has arrived at Old Trafford and will wear the number four shirt. There are reported tensions between winger Jadon Sancho and manager Erik ten Hag, with discussions expected to address the issue rather than making a public statement. Additionally, Chelsea opted for Cole Palmer from Manchester City over pursuing Sancho due to concerns about the 23-year-old’s mentality, as reported by The Guardian.
