"At United you've got a head coach [Ruben Amorim], then you had a director of football [Dan Ashworth], a technical director or whatever Jason Wilcox's title is, and you've got a head of recruitment [Christopher Vivell], who is very powerful, You've got a lot of people deciding on who is coming in. For instance, the signing of Benjamin Sesko was a little bit weird to me because we have Rasmus Hojlund who has been starved of service for two years."
"You only have to see what he's doing at Napoli with Kevin de Bruyne and Scott McTominay to play with - he's scoring goals. I've consistently said this for two-and-a-half years - Rasmus Hojlund will be a 25-goal-a-year striker for Manchester United, but he needs service. We let him go on the stats that he scored very little goals last season and bring Sesko in at the time we bring in Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbuemo, who would give Hojlund first-class service."
Peter Schmeichel criticized Manchester United's decision-making around transfers and recruitment structure, questioning the sale of Scott McTominay and the handling of Rasmus Hojlund. Rasmus Hojlund has scored four goals in six games for Napoli, equalling his previous season's Premier League tally. Scott McTominay earned Serie A player of the year after moving to Italy. Schmeichel argued that Hojlund needs sustained service to reach his potential and that signing Benjamin Sesko amid other attacking additions and without addressing midfield balance was a questionable use of funds.
