Amid uncertainty over his own future, Rasmus Hojlund continues to train with the Manchester United first team.

Manchester United’s players have been busy preparing for the weekend match with Fulham, aiming to register a first win of the season.

Following a strong performance in an opening day defeat to Arsenal, Manchester United are putting in the work.

United have released new pictures of the players training at Carrington, and it was notable to see Rasmus Hojlund in the midst of it all.

Rasmus Hojlund still involved for Manchester United

Rasmus Hojlund was left out of the Manchester United matchday squad to face Arsenal and had to watch from the stands.

This follows United’s move for Benjamin Sesko, which knocks Hojlund down the Manchester United pecking order.

Hojlund is said to reluctantly accept he does not have a future at United, amid a previously stated desire to stay put.

But unlike Alejandro Garnacho, Antony, Tyrell Malacia and Jadon Sancho, dubbed United’s ‘bomb squad’, who are all training individually, no extreme lengths have been taken with Rasmus Hojlund.

Napoli are the latest Serie A side to take an interest in signing Hojlund, with negotiations ongoing amid a competing desire from AC Milan.

Hojlund is still competing to be involved for United this weekend. But it should also be remembered that Scott McTominay featured as a substitute for the Red Devils in the first two games of 2024/25 and was still sold to Napoli.

Benjamin Sesko competing to start

Manchester United lined up without a centre-forward against Arsenal, with Mason Mount forming a front-three with Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha.

Ruben Amorim brought on new signing Benjamin Sesko as a substitute, and the Slovenian will hope to start for the club this weekend.

Sesko was pictured in training taking part in a mini-game, taking a shot with Altay Bayindir in goal.

The decision whether to start Bayindir or Andre Onana is another poser for Amorim, with the Turkey international getting the nod against the Gunners.
