Manchester United players have been left ‘startled’ by the level of some of Erik ten Hag’s signings, according to reports. Rasmus Hojlund is one of four acquisitions that have come under scrutiny among the squad.
United spent around £190million on new signings in the summer. Their biggest outlay was on Hojlund, who will cost a fee of up to £72million.
The Dane had just one season in Serie A with Atalanta, scoring nine goals in 32 appearances. He is yet to score a goal in his 10 Premier League outings but has managed five goals in the Champions League group stage.
Hojlund has shown some promise in a United side that has already lost 10 games in all competitions. But it appears his arrival has not gone down too well among the squad.
The Manchester Evening News says some players have been left ‘perplexed’ by the quality of Ten Hag’s signings. One player is particularly confused at the addition of Hojlund.
Three other Ten Hag signings have also raised doubts. They are winger Antony, loan striker Wout Weghorst and England midfielder Mason Mount.
