Alan Shearer has backed Ruud van Nistelrooy to improve Rasmus Hojlund in front of goal.
The Dutch legend is joining United's coaching staff next season.
Shearer told Betfair: "That can only enhance and help Hojlund because Ruud van Nistelrooy has been there, he’s worn the shirt at Old Trafford. Hojlund working with him on the training ground is only going to improve him.
"In really difficult circ*mstances for Hojlund last season, I think there’s definitely something to work with there. It was around 16 goals he got in the end which is a decent return for how tough it had been for him and a lot of his teammates for most of the season."
