Did Manchester United sell their best striker? Hojlund has scored in 4 consecutive matches with 6 goals and 1 assist.

Can you imagine? The Danish forward Hojlund, once abandoned by Manchester United and unwanted by Amrabat, has found the net in 4 consecutive matches for club and national team. This fiery run is precisely what Manchester United’s lineup lacks—a strong striker. Hojlund’s surge this season validates Ronaldo’s remarks about United’s player quality.

Hojlund’s recent streak: scoring in 4 consecutive matches with 6 goals and 1 assist.

• Champions League: Napoli 2-1 Sporting CP, Hojlund started and played the full 90 minutes, scoring twice.
• Serie A: Napoli 2-1 Genoa, Hojlund was in the starting lineup, played 82 minutes, and scored one goal.
• World Cup Qualifiers: Denmark (away) 6-0 Belarus, Hojlund started, played 77 minutes, with 2 shots and 1 assist.
• World Cup Qualifiers: Denmark 3-1 Greece, Hojlund started, played 70 minutes, and scored one goal.

After leaving Manchester United on loan this season, Hojlund has scored 2 goals in 4 Serie A games and 2 goals in 2 Champions League matches. His market value on Transfermarkt has surged by €10 million, from €35 million to €45 million. Perhaps the problem at Manchester United is not the quality of their strikers but that the club’s environment doesn’t nurture top forwards. Hopefully, Hojlund will become the new Nordic striking star at Napoli.
