Our no.11 netted five times during the month to extend his ongoing top-flight scoring run to six straight games – only Ruud van Nistelrooy has ever managed a longer streak in a United shirt.

Having turned 21 at the beginning of February, Hojlund became the youngest player to register in half-a-dozen consecutive Premier League fixtures when scoring twice in his most recent league outing, at Luton Town.

Hojlund’s brace saw him eclipse the previous record-holder, Newcastle United's Joe Willock, by 258 days and his opening goal at Kenilworth Road, timed at 37 seconds, was also United’s quickest in Premier League history away from home.
