Manchester United’s 2023/24 campaign has gotten off to a woeful start.
They escaped with a point vs Wolves on Monday despite the visitors having a clear penalty shout dismissed in injury time.
Man United were then dominated and beaten 2-0 on Saturday evening by Tottenham, with it clear the Red Devils are missing a striker.
With a back injury keeping him out for all of pre-season, Rasmus Hojlund is still working his way back to match sharpness on the training ground.
However, the Dane hinted at a possible debut as soon as next weekend’s clash with Nottingham Forest when posting a picture of a recent workout alongside the caption ‘soon’ on August 19.
Elsewhere, Manchester United left Harry Maguire at home for the trip to Tottenham, which Erik ten Hag revealed was related to a minor injury and not his transfer future.
Finally, an unspecified injury carried over from last season has kept Tyrell Malacia out of pre-season and the opening games of the campaign.
No time frame is given on when the left-back could return.
