The forward is set to miss the showdown at Wembley due to injury

Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund has featured in an acne treatment video ahead of his side's Community Shield clash with Manchester City today.

The Denmark international won't be involved in the match after picking up a hamstring injury during pre-season.


With Hojlund currently unable to train, he has some spare time on his hands.

And the former Atalanta striker has now featured in a video getting acne treatment.

Hojlund was filmed having facial laser treatment with Pulse Light Clinic in Manchester.

He has had three rounds of PicoSure Laser Skin Rejuvenation treatment so far. According to their website, that would cost between £1,099 and £1,399.

Hojlund says his acne blew up in each of the last two summers, which is why he's getting the treatment done.

"I'm actually quite surprised," he said. "It blew up the last two summers I had."

Dr Rosh, who treated Hojlund, said: "He's been troubled with a bit of acne with some scarring, so we're helping to harmonise that texture, reduce the scarring, and reduce the redness.

"We've used the Picosure Pro Laser here to deliver channels and break down the skin and then exosomes to help with that inflammation and healing to give him the best result possible."

This season will mark Hojlund's second in a United shirt.

The forward set the club back a massive £72million upon arriving from Atalanta 12 months ago after the Red Devils refused to pursue a deal for Harry Kane.

Hojlund bagged 16 goals for United last season to finish the campaign as their top goalscorer.

But with the forward unavailable for today's match with City, Joshua Zirkzee could lead the line instead.

The Netherlands international has joined the club from Bologna after impressing for the Serie A giants last season.

And Ten Hag says Zirkzee is 'motivated' as he looks to make his mark in English football.

"Yeah I think he can [feature], he is really hungry to do this because he is looking forward and he is also very excited to be coming into the Premier League," he said.

"To come to Manchester United and on his first occasion go to Wembley, of course that will highly motivate him, that's for sure.

"But he is also short in training, he had a break, he trained individually but he has now had a couple of days in the team training."

United are looking to win the Community Shield for the first time since 2016.
