Rasmus Hojlund has been unable to find the back of the net in 12 Premier League appearances for Manchester United since his £72 million move from Atalanta in the summer. The Denmark international has scored five goals in the Champions League group stage this season, but his performance in the game against Bournemouth was still a frustrating one.
Rio Ferdinand believes that the lack of service from United's wide players could be the main reason for Hojlund's lack of goals. He stated that players such as Jarrod Bowen, Michael Olise, and Jacob Murphy would have been able to provide the striker with plenty of opportunities to score and would have resulted in Hojlund having five or six goals by now.
Ferdinand went on to say that since the arrival of Bruno Fernandes in 2020 for an initial fee of £47 million, he is the only Manchester United player who has managed to hold his transfer value since his time at Old Trafford. He pointed out that players such as Varane, Casemiro, Wan-Bissaka, Dalot, Amad Diallo, and Van de Beek have not been able to do the same.
