The Man Utd striker is often compared to the Manchester City goal machine, but Hojlund is not a fan of such talk.
Rasmus Hojlund says he does not like constant comparisons with Manchester City striker Erling Haaland but crowned the Norwegian as the world’s best attacker.
Hojlund has admitted he is striving to reach the high levels of Haaland, who scored 52 times in 53 matches last season. The Dane - who netted 10 at Atalanta last term - is eager to forge his own path in Manchester as United try to bridge the gap to the Treble winners.READ MORE: Guardiola knows how to get Erling Haaland firing again
“I don't really want to be compared to him, but I hope that one day I can be like him. Who knows? I am only 20 years old. We will have to see what it can end up with." He added: "As I said, Erling is a class player. He has had some absolutely outstanding years! He must stop when we meet him! He is a crazy football player. I try to learn from him.”
