Rasmus Hojlund will play against his former club for Manchester United in the Champions League on Tuesday and he could face his two brothers as well.
A bit of competitiveness is usually a given when siblings are involved, but when three boys arrive within the space of 23 months, you can expect the rivalry to be a little more intense. So it proved with the children of Anders Hojlund and Kirsten Winther.
That extra time is all starting to look like a very shrewd investment, however. Those memories of sessions in the cold in their hometown of Horsholm, just north of Copenhagen, might come flooding back at Old Trafford on Tuesday night. "All of them have been very well advanced compared to the average, but the two younger brothers were, compared to Rasmus at the same age, in front of him," Mouroux told the Manchester Evening News.
"Anders has had times where he has bought the balls and the cones and all of that stuff with all three of them, but often they end up making it so they go with him one-on-one, because if it’s all three of them they make it too competitive. They start to go at each other and things like that," said Mouroux.
They would take a ball downstairs and play against each other in the confines of the basement, sharpening technical skills and competitive instincts. Despite that, Rasmus, Oscar and Emil are close as brothers and Mouroux recounts a story from their school days to illustrate the point. All of the boys played a year above their level at HUI, but the reasons for doing so were different for Rasmus, compared to Oscar and Emil.
"My personal favourite is Oscar," he said. "Emil is the more elegant player, he makes the elegant decisions and looks elegant when he’s dribbling and having beautiful passes, whereas Oscar is more of a bulldog, he’s a fighter, a winner, going into tackles, having courage.
