Bruno Fernandes joining pal in Rasmus Hojlund row after £72m deal ‘perplexed’ star

After Hojlund’s £72 million transfer from Atalanta last summer, his first season at Manchester United was not expected to be smooth. In a match against FC Copenhagen in November, Hojlund had a dispute with Dalot, with tensions escalating as the home team equalized and then scored a late winner.
Fernandes reportedly sided with Dalot over Hojlund due to previous issues. When Hojlund raised his concerns with the coaching staff, he was advised to resolve the issue directly with Dalot. Eventually, peace was achieved between the trio after Fernandes refused to shake hands with Hojlund until the conflict with Dalot was resolved. Hojlund’s arrival created concerns about Ten Hag’s recruitment within the squad.
Despite this, his debut season at Manchester United, while challenging, has shown moments of promise, such as becoming the youngest player in Premier League history to score in six consecutive games.
