Brandon Williams responds hilariously to Hojlund announcement, he's the king of Instagram

Manchester United defender Brandon Williams has sent a hilarious response to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano following the announcement of Rasmus Hojlund.

Erik ten Hag has received huge financial backing this summer after United were able to secure the signings of Andre Onana and Mason Mount, with Denmark international Rasmus Hojlund becoming the latest addition at Old Trafford.

Earlier today, United confirmed the signing of the 20-year-old forward from Atalanta in a deal worth around £72 million, as the Red Devils recruit the striker to lead their attacking line next season.

Speaking for the first time as a United player, Hojlund said: "Once I had spoken to the manager, I knew that this environment would be perfect for my development; I am relishing the opportunity to work with one of the best coaches in the world."

The striker was unveiled in front of the Old Trafford crowd this afternoon, as Ten Hag's men continue their pre-season preparations in a friendly against Ligue 1 side RC Lens. A clash which saw a strong starting line-up put out by the United boss, as he ramps their fitness levels up ahead of their season opener against Wolverhampton Wanderers next Monday (8pm kick-off).

In the aftermath of the announcement, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano commented his trademark phrase 'Here we go!' on the United video posted across social media. To which defender Brandon Williams replied: "Don't worry it's just me.'

Although Williams seems in high spirits off the pitch ahead of the new campaign, his United career has seemingly stalled on it. After emerging into the first team under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia are now seemingly preferred to him in the left-back spot by the new boss.

However, he could be set to receive a boost in game-time this season after featuring heavily in pre-season against Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid and Arsenal. With Malacia also suffering an injury ahead of the new campaign.

His contract is set to expire next year, making this season under Ten Hag a make or break moment in his budding young career. The player has pursued a loan move to Norwich City in the past, but may have to look for a permanent home elsewhere next season if he cannot forge a prominent role in the side this year.
