Rasmus Hojlund's interview with a Manchester United fan channel has sparked an extraordinary backlash leading to death threats and a police investigation.

Hojlund spoke to The United Stand last month, fulfilling a promise the Denmark striker made after his £72million move to Old Trafford in the summer.

Several of Hojlund's team-mates were reported to be unhappy over his decision to be interviewed by the channel's owner and presenter Mark Goldbridge because they have been critical of United players.

The United Stand have since received death threats warning Goldbridge he is 'a dead man walking' and threatening to harm him if he turns up at Old Trafford.
