Rasmus Hojlund includes Cristiano Ronaldo in all-time 5-a-side Manchester United team

Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund has included legendary former Manchester United and Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo in his all-time five-a-side Red Devils team. The 21-year-old summer arrival from Atalanta has enjoyed a good run of form of late following a forgettable opening spell at the club.

On his 21st birthday, the Danish attacker opened the scoring in United's 3-0 Premier League win over West Ham United at the weekend. The Dane has now scored his fourth goal in as many league games after failing to score in the opening 14 games in the Premier League.

While being asked to name his dream five a side team comprising Manchester United players and former players, Hojlund picked Cristiano Ronaldo in his side. Alongside the Al-Nassr superstar, he also named former Danish keeper Peter Schmeichel, centre-back Rio Ferdinand, midfielders Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs.

Out of the five players, only Ronaldo is still an active player who is currently plying his trade at Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League. The Portuguese superstar recently turned 39 and remains at the peak of his powers tearing it up in Saudi Arabia.

The five-time Ballon d’Or started the Saudi Pro League revolution by joining Al Nassr in January 2022 on a free transfer after his deal was terminated at Manchester United. He has scored 38 goals and provided 13 assists in 44 games for Al-Nassr till date.
