Amorim tactics complicated things at Manchester United, says Rasmus Højlund

Rasmus Højlund, a young Danish striker, recently spoke about his time at Manchester United in an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport. Højlund discussed the complexities introduced by the arrival of new manager Ruben Amorim following Erik ten Hag's departure. Højlund explained that the team faced a challenging period due to numerous injuries and adapting to Amorim's distinct playing style.

Although Højlund had a successful first season at United, his performance declined in the second year, with fewer goals and fewer appearances. Højlund's move to United came with a hefty €79.8m price tag, which may have contributed to the perception of his underwhelming second season. Despite this, Højlund remains grateful for his stint at Manchester United and credits the club for his dream achievement: playing for his childhood ambition.

Højlund recently joined Napoli on a permanent loan, where he hopes to build on his goal-scoring potential and establish himself as a reliable striker.
