Hojlund just scored his first Premier League goal for the club in a 3-2 win over Unai Emery’s Aston Villa. While acknowledging Hojlund’s youth, Casemiro has voiced his belief in the player and stated that he still has a long way to go before becoming one of the world’s top young talents.

Casemiro told the press:

We shouldn’t place too much pressure on him because he’s still a child. Many people believe he should come in and score 30 goals right away. He’s still in his early twenties, and this is his first season in the Premier League.

He has also requested that the media not place undue strain on his young shoulders. He emphasized the Danish striker’s excellent impact on the team and how he has contributed to the team’s dynamism. Casemiro believes he will be a motivated and ambitious player who will usher in a new era with the Red Devils.

Hojlund missed the most recent game against Nottingham Forest due to illness, but he is expected to be available for United’s FA Cup match against Wigan Athletic at the DW Stadium. As United strives for silverware this season, Hojlund’s contributions will be crucial if he continues to improve his game.
