Huge Rasmus Hojlund selection hint dropped ahead of Manchester United vs Liverpool FC fixture

Denmark head coach Kasper Hjulmand has hinted that Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund will feature in Sunday's FA Cup quarter-final against Liverpool at Old Trafford.

The Dane was in red-hot form prior to sustaining the injury in training, scoring in six consecutive Premier League matches. In his last outing, he netted his first Premier League brace in a 2-1 win over Luton Town at Kenilworth Road.

However, Denmark boss Hjulmand says he's spoken to Ten Hag and expects him to feature against Liverpool. Hjulmand made the admission after including Hojlund in his squad for Denmark's upcoming friendlies against Switzerland and the Faroe Islands later this month.
"It is clear that Rasmus will play on Sunday against Liverpool and must get through the game well," said Hjulmand, as quoted by Campo.dk. "We expect that. We are in contact with United. I have spoken to Erik, and we expect that to happen.
"But it is clear that he has to get through the game, and there must be nothing on the other side for that to be possible [to get called-up
