Former Manchester United star, Louis Saha, has hailed the club for signing Rasmus Hojlund.
He said the Red Devils did well in snubbing a move for Brighton’s Evan Ferguson.
Ferguson was linked with a move to Manchester United in the summer before the Red Devils opted to sign Hojlund from Atalanta instead.
Ferguson, 18, scored ten goals in 25 appearances last season.
He has already netted four goals in four appearances this campaign.
Hojlund, meanwhile, made his debut for the Red Devils in the 3-1 defeat at Arsenal on Sunday.
“Rasmus Hojlund was the right target for Manchester United over Evan Ferguson,” Saha told Paddy Power.
“Both players are tremendous with exciting potential but whenever you make a decision, there needs to be no regrets.
“Ferguson scored a hat trick on the weekend, and Hojlund played in his debut, it doesn’t make sense to make those comparisons because they have two different careers.
“Ferguson is doing well and it’s great for Brighton but for now it’s about Manchester United and the players they have available.
“Hojlund came on for 25 minutes and he did very well, his strength and power showed, and this will be good for United as other than him there are no real target men at the club.
“He can occupy the two central defenders and maybe even free up space because of his speed and strength.
“It will be very interesting to see how he can adapt physically after a few games, but I’m sure that is the right choice for Manchester United.”
