Champions League: Hojlund, Martial could play together – Ten Hag

Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, has hinted that Anthony Martial and Rasmus Hojlund could both start in attack in future.

Ten Hag has stuck with Hojlund as his first-choice central striker since the Dane’s £72m arrival from Atalanta.

Martial has scored only one goal this season and that came in his last start against Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup.

Hojlund’s three goals for the Red Devils so far have come in the Champions League.

But Ten Hag, speaking ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League clash against FC Copenhagen, said the pair could play together in attack, as Martial is capable of playing from the left.

“They can play together because Anthony Martial is also available to play from the side,” he said.
