Manchester United fans have been left excited at after spotting a moment between Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Hojlund in the warm-up before their win over Crystal Palace.

The Red Devils returned to winning ways on Tuesday as they brushed aside Crystal Palace 3-0 in the Carabao Cup, thanks to goals from Alejandro Garnacho, Casemiro and Anthony Martial.

But prior to kick-off, Marcus Rashford revealed that he and new £72 million signing Hojlund had been working together secretly in training to help understand each other's game.

United fans picked up on Rashford and Hojlund joking around together as they privately warmed up, speculating that a deadly strike partnership could be brewing.

You can watch the footage below.

Fans were quick to react to the clip on social media, with one fan tweeting: "Can’t wait to see these two when they fully understand each other’s game. Could be terrifying for opposing teams."

"The future is already looking brighter for Man Utd," another added.

Speaking to about his newly-established relationship with Hojlund, Rashford told MUTV: "I'm honestly super excited about it."

"At times last year when we were going on counter-attacks and stuff, when you looked up, you just saw shirts of the other bodies! And usually only the cutback was on to Bruno [Fernandes], who was usually arriving later. Whereas this year, you have to understand the dynamics have changed.

"So we've spoken to each other, we've done a lot of work off the pitch, probably that the coaching staff don't even know [about] because it's just between me and him. But I just want to understand his game and he wants to understand my game as quickly as possible.

"So far I think it's been good. We obviously had the unlucky one against Brighton that got disallowed, but then in the following game we get another one where we've combined for a goal. So I'm very happy for him. And I'm sure it's a relationship that will help both players.

"I'm excited for him, excited for the future. And I'm just excited that we've got so many games coming up because we've got so many opportunities to show who we are and if we hopefully we do get the next win, we've got another game a few days later and we can get another one and we can start to build momentum."
