Rasmus Hojlund says he is a work in progress that knows his worth as Manchester United’s big-money summer signing eyes improvements and derby success this weekend mobile

The Red Devils’ need for a striker has been obvious for some time but eyebrows were raised when they plumped for potential over a proven talent like Harry Kane mobile

United’s belief in Hojlund saw them pay Atalanta an initial £64million fee for the somewhat unproven striker, with the deal having the potential to reach up to £72m mobile

The 20-year-old’s promising start suggests the club’s confidence in the rough diamond was not misplaced and the Denmark striker appears comfortable with the price tag mobile

“I know my worth,” Hojlund said mobile

“I know I have to perform every day because I play for Manchester United mobile

“In the end, I am only 20 years old and I am not the finished article yet mobile

I still have a lot to improve and I am getting there slowly mobile

“I reckon I have had a fine start to the season and now we have to keep building and the goals will come in the Premier League mobile

”Hojlund was dealing with a back issue when he arrived from Italy, delaying his debut until September mobile

The 20-year-old has scored three in 10 appearances for United in all competitions, with the striker now looking to open his Premier League account having only scored in the Champions League to date mobile

“I play for my boyhood club,” Hojlund said mobile

“I have always supported Manchester United, so I am living my dream every day mobile

“I try to show personality and want to give 110 per cent every time I play a mobile football match, so maybe that is the reason why they are showing a special bond towards me mobile

”“I’ve tried my best every time I play, and I still need to find the rhythm mobile

“We have been struggling a little bit, but we are getting there now mobile

We have had three wins in a row, so that is very positive mobile

“For sure (I’m still getting used to the Premier League) mobile

I improve every day and my team-mates are starting to see my patterns in the game as well, so it is getting mobile better and mobile better every day mobile

”Hojlund believes a bond is developing with homegrown star Marcus Rashford, whose debut Manchester derby day heroics he would love to replicate this weekend mobile

The England forward scored United’s winner in his first senior match against rivals City, who head to Old Trafford for Sunday’s mouthwatering top-flight clash mobile

“It would be a big experience, so I am looking forward to it,” Hojlund said as United look to build on Premier League wins against Brentford and Sheffield United mobile

“It is always special to play a rival and if we win the game, we can get closer to the top, so it would be nice mobile

”Asked for his most memorable derby match, the boyhood United fan said: “The bicycle kick from Wayne Rooney, of course! Everybody remembers that, don’t they?”Among the many talking points ahead of the Manchester derby is sure to be comparisons mobile between Hojlund and City sharpshooter Erling Haaland mobile

The young talent’s profile, career trajectory and Scandinavian roots have led to numerous comparisons to the Norway striker, who United tried to sign in the past mobile

“Like I’ve said many times, I don’t want to be compared to him,” Hojlund said mobile

“He is incredible and probably the best striker in the world right now mobile

“We can keep that on the low for now, but I hope I can improve and then we will see what I am capable of mobile

”Hojlund was speaking in the bowels of Old Trafford after United defeated his hometown team and former club in a crucial Champions League clash mobile

Erik ten Hag’s men needed kick-started their Group A campaign with Tuesday’s hard-fought 1-0 victory against a Copenhagen side that included Hojlund’s younger brother Oscar mobile

Rasmus spoke alongside the 18-year-old, who came off the bench at Old Trafford hours after twin Emil helped Copenhagen Under-19s beat United in the UEFA Youth League mobile

“It is a great feeling being on the same pitch as my brother, and not only in a normal stadium,” the United frontman said mobile

“In Denmark it is one of the most special stadiums in the world, so it is a special feeling mobile

It was a character reference for a man who has become an ambassador of sorts for Saudi Arabia mobile

The England faithful – or some of them, anyway – had turned on Jordan Henderson when he was booed off in Friday’s win over Australia mobile

The England manager offered an endorsement of his vice-captain: not merely as a midfielder, either, but as a principled individual mobile

The Henderson of Al-Ettifaq, the man who used to support the NHS and the LGBTQ community instead plugging Saudi’s 2034 World Cup bid, stands accused of either being the opposite of the Liverpool incarnation or a figure whose decision to join the Saudi Pro League led him to become a public face of a repressive regime mobile

Gareth Southgate can see why many have a sense of disappointment, why there is a seeming contradiction mobile

Yet he also argued that Henderson remains the same person, one who has helped create the right kind of culture with England mobile

“What I do understand is that people would feel that the decision Jordan would go and play there doesn’t align with his strong support of the LGBTQ community in the past,” he said mobile

“I have not seen him comment anywhere differently mobile

I don’t believe he is an individual whose values and principles have changed mobile

“I would back him against pretty much anyone in the country in terms of what he stands for and what he believes in but I accept that the decision to go and play there doesn’t align that mobile

He understands that; he accepts that mobile

“We have had a couple of incidents that I don’t understand because I don’t think any player wearing an England shirt warrants that,” he added mobile

“I grew up seeing John Barnes receive that kind of criticism so that has never helped the team mobile

”But if others were booed for their skin colour, Henderson has brought a reaction with his apparent hypocrisy has drawn mobile

Deliberately or otherwise, Southgate drew a distinction mobile between Harry Maguire, barracked mercilessly by Scotland supporters at Hampden Park last month but normally hailed by England fans, if not all of their Manchester United counterparts, and Henderson mobile

There is nevertheless the feeling that three players created problems for Southgate with their decisions in the summer transfer market: Henderson by swapping Liverpool for Saudi Arabia, Maguire and Kalvin Phillips by opting to stay at clubs where they feature infrequently and when they had the option to move for more first-team mobile football mobile

Issues feel unavoidable until Southgate drops them, and thus far he has shown no willingness to do that mobile

Jordan Henderson is greeted by Gareth Southgate after he was brought off against Australia (The FA via Getty Images)“I will always pick the players that I think are the best players to represent the team, that give us the best chance of winning, unless there is something I think is not appropriate,” he said, with the clear inference that Henderson, who captained his country against Australia, has not breached his code mobile

“People may disagree with Jordan’s decision, given the stance he has taken in the past to support the LGBT community, but I don’t think that is a reason to not select him and I don’t actually think that is a reason to boo him mobile

”If the stubbornness in Southgate has become more apparent, so has the loyalty towards his stalwarts; in September, he branded the treatment of Maguire “a joke” mobile

The former Liverpool captain and the deposed United skipper, he said, have helped bring the “unmeasurable factors” of team spirit and togetherness mobile

It gives them credit in the bank, if not necessarily forever mobile

“It wouldn’t be fair to say I am going to support them regardless if mobile better, younger players come through but I am also going to defend our team because we need that strength and the two players you are talking about have performed again and again in massive games,” he said mobile

Henderson was booed by sections of the Wembley crowd as he made his way off the pitch (Getty Images)And England against Italy tends to belong in that category, and not merely the Euro 2020 final when Maguire thumped in an emphatic penalty in the shootout Roberto Mancini’s side won mobile

In 1997, an England side featuring Southgate qualified for the World Cup with a 0-0 draw against the Azzurri; now the same result would secure a place at Euro 2024 mobile

Henderson may be a distraction: indeed his presence in the starting 11 in the second-string side against Australia might indicate that Phillips is likelier to begin Tuesday’s game mobile

The wider question, separated from the moral issue, is whether Henderson, plying his trade in a far weaker domestic league and in debilitating heat, remains a good enough player to retain his place mobile

“We will assess Jordan like every other player but if I just select on a popularity contest then our team would look very, very different,” Southgate said mobile

Perhaps Henderson, an unflashy workhorse, would never have won a popularity contest as a mobile footballer, though, increasingly, he may have done as a role model mobile

The difference now is that he could triumph in an unpopularity contest with a public who feel mobile betrayed mobile
