Rasmus Hojlund was in extremely impressive form until this young striker suddenly got injured.
Hojlund completed a £64 million transfer from Atalanta to Man United with great expectations placed on his shoulders last summer.
However, the 21-year-old adapted slowly during his first few months in Manchester.
It wasn’t until around December that Hojlund opened his Premier League account, when the youngster scored the winner in a dramatic late win over Aston Villa.
The Danish international then scored 7 goals in 7 consecutive matches for the Red Devils, but suddenly missed the last three matches due to injury.
However, his top form was enough to help Hojlund win the best player award for February. According to Opta, Hojlund scored five goals in four Premier League appearances in February. He converted 56% of his shots on target (5/9), the best conversion rate of any player. Make 3 or more shots in February.
Hojlund is personally the best at Man Utd and the entire Premier League, while Kobbie Mainoo was honored with the best goal of the month, after a solo goal against Wolves.
Notably, Hojlund also matches the achievements of Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo. He is the third player in Man Utd history to win the best player award when he was 21 years old or younger.
Ronaldo and Rooney both achieved a lot of success in the Red Devils’ shirt. Both are certainly role models for Hojlund at Old Trafford.
Hojlund is also the first Danish player in Premier League history to receive the Player of the Month award.
In the FIFA game, Hojlund has an overall index of 88 with 93 speed, 88 shooting, 72 passing, 86 dribbling, 42 defense and 88 physicality. He shows that he is a worthy option for gamers to choose.
