Who is Emil Hojlund?

Emil Hojlund is a footballer for FC Copenhagen and is the brother of Manchester United star – Rasmus Hojlund.

Name: Emil Winther Hojlund
DOB: 04/01/2005
Club: FC Copenhagen
Nationality: Danish
Position: Centre-Forward

How good is Emil Hojlund?

Emil does have all the attributes to become a top player. Emil is a mix of a target man and a deep-lying forward, who likes to link up play. He’s a bit of a unit for his age who is comfortable in the physical duels and knows how to use his body well to gain an advantage.

He often likes to play with his back to the goal and drop into midfield to link up play. He’s a real asset at this due to his strength, meaning he rarely loses the ball. He was described by the club as a ‘complete striker’.

According to Football Talent Scout, he has the potential to make it big, with them predicting he’ll be a first-team starter in a European League.

DOB: 04/01/2005
Club: FC Copenhagen
Nationality: Danish
Position: Central Midfielder

How good is Oscar Hojlund?

Oscar is the one that is most different to his brothers. Described by the club as an ‘energetic and dynamic midfielder who can run from end to end’, Oscar is a more creative, intelligent player who operates in the centre of midfield.

He also has the ability to defend as well as attack, which is essential for any good centre-mid in the modern-day era of football. What a talented family. Bet their parents are made up!
