Rasmus Hojlund<\/a> has opened up on the help and support he receives from Peter Schmeichel<\/a> after a video surfaced showing striker being consoled by the legendary ex-Manchester United goalkeeper.<\/p>\n

The forward has endured a difficult second season at United, managing just three goals in total in the Premier League with only nine games remaining of the campaign.<\/p>\n

A concerning 21-match barren spell in front of goal, stretching all the way back to mid-December, only intensified questions over Hojlund’s long-term future at the Theatre of Dreams<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hojlund’s struggles even provoked United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe to question the club’s decision to shell out \u00a364million on the 22-year-old<\/a> in an explosive interview with the BBC last week.<\/p>\n

However, the young Dane finally hit the target in United’s 3-0 victory over Leicester on Sunday night and he will no doubt be hoping to return from the international break with a renewed sense of belief.<\/p>\n

Facing the media from Denmark’s training camp, Hojlund was asked about a recent clip that went viral on social media, in which the attacker was seen having a heart-to-heart with fellow countryman Schmeichel.<\/p>\n

The video in question – which has racked up millions of views on social media – was filmed in the wake of United’s 1-1 draw at home to Arsenal<\/a> at Old Trafford, where Ruben Amorim opted to name Joshua Zirkzee up front over Hojlund.<\/p>\n

‘Peter helps me occasionally and listens to how I’m feeling, both when things are going well and when things are going badly,’ Hojlund told reporters this morning.<\/p>\n

‘I wouldn’t call him a father figure, but he helps a lot because he’s been through it before. <\/p>\n

‘He knows what it means to play for Manchester United as a Dane. <\/p>\n

‘It’s nice to have someone to spar with on that front.’<\/p>\n

United’s Danish contingent has grown significantly in recent months, with Patrick Dorgu and Chido Obi-Martin arriving from Lecce and Arsenal respectively.<\/p>\n

And while Hojlund is still a young player himself, he made it clear he was always available to lend a hand to those less experienced players in the dressing room.<\/p>\n

‘Christian [Eriksen] also helps me and the others, but if there are people who come and want a little help, I’m available,’ he added.<\/p>\n

‘That applies to everyone here and Patrick and Chido.’<\/p>\n
