Biereth started the match and scored the opening goal in just 12 minutes, showcasing his skills on the field. His performance in this game has sparked discussions about his potential to take Højlund's spot in the Danish national team. Højlund, who scored 10 goals for United last season, including only four in the Premier League, may be concerned about losing his position.

As the transfer window approaches, interest in Højlund has grown, with Italian club Inter Milan expressing their desire to sign him. However, Højlund has stated that he intends to stay at Manchester United, citing his existing contract until 2028. He remains committed to the team and is looking forward to a productive pre-season.
