Manchester, England – Dis season no dey start well for Rasmus Hojlund as e don receive message say e no go dey part of Manchester United matchday squad against Arsenal. Na Ruben Amorim, the head coach, talk am after dem bring Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig for hefty £73.7 million. Chai! Wetin go happen to our guy?
Hojlund, wey just 22 years old, don dey face tough time since dem sign him from Atalanta. E show serious commitment, but reality don set in say competition go hard for him position. Last season, him fit only score ten goals in all competitions. E even go through 21 matches without scoring. Omo, na wah!
As our gaffer Amorim dey prepare for the big game, him no really send us clear signals about Hojlund. During di pre-match press conference, him just say, ‘He’s one more option, we will see.’ No be small suspense dem dey create o!
Hojlund no dey keen to leave Old Trafford, despite clubs like AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund don dey eye am. He don talk say him go fight for him spot, but with Sesko coming in, e don look like say him dey pursue shadow. “My plan is clear: stay and fight for my place,” Hojlund talk as he dey find way to gel with the team.
In last match against Fiorentina, Hojlund no even see pitch. How you expect you go shine if chance no dey for you abi?
United leadership dey seriously consider making a permanent sale for Hojlund, but dem sabi say dem fit collect lower amount than di £45 million wey dem value am. For now, loan deal go fit happen finish, but wetin go happen next go depend on Hojlund’s mindset.
The Red Devils don sign strong players like Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, aiming to fix di attack wey don lag behind. E fit mean less playing time for Hojlund unless he fit prove say e get die-hard mentality.
As for the squad go, Amorim don confirm say Joshua Zirkzee dey fit to return, so competition dey, no be small. If Hojlund no get chance this time, na only sesh on di bench go remain for him. Arsenal, wey also make some crazy signings, go really show dem say dey wan compete dis season.
With so many new faces in di squad, it dey clear say United wan turn di tables this season after dem finish 15th last year. But worry no dey, plenty competition dey to sharpen all of dem. As we dey look forward to dis match against Arsenal, hope dey say e go dey interesting. Naija football fans just dey pray say our boys fit deliver.
