Manchester United returned to action in the Premier League when they played against Luton Town.

The Red Devils striker, Rasmus Hojlund ensured they won all three points after he scored twice as they defeated Luton Town 2-1 on Sunday night.

The brace extended Hojlund’s fine goal-scoring run for the Red Devils.

Hojlund, at the age of 21 years and 14 days, is now the youngest player to score in six consecutive Premier League games.

He takes the record from Newcastle’s Joe Willock (21 years and 272 days).

He is now ahead of players like Erling Haaland, Romelu Lukaku and Thierry Henry, who all achieved the same feat at 22.

Recall that Hojlund moved to Old Trafford in a £72 million deal during the summer of 2023.

The Denmark star took a while to start scoring in the league, with his first five goals for Man United all coming in the Champions League.

He eventually opened his account in the league against Aston Villa on December 26.
