Manchester United had numerous players in loan action this week.
To find out where all of them are plying their trade this season, click here.
Rasmus Hojlund
The Danish striker has not had the best start to 2026 but scored his first goal of the year in a 2-3 defeat to Chelsea.
On 43 minutes, smart movement inside the box led to him rifling a left-footed shot into the top of the net to give the Chelsea keeper no chance.
Hojlund completed both his dribbles and carried the ball forward six times in the match.
He also won four of his nine duel attempts in the game. In spite of his goal, Napoli failed to qualify for the next round of the Champions League, finishing 30th in the table.
The striker will next be in action when Napoli host Fiorentina on Saturday.
Rasmus Hojlund stats vs Chelsea
Marcus Rashford
The England attacker came off the bench to play the final 18 minutes of FC Barcelona’s 4-1 win over Copenhagen.
He scored one goal and hit the woodwork in a busy spell on the pitch. His goal came when his free kick squeezed under the keeper and into the bottom corner.
Rashford also made one key pass but did not complete any of his dribble attempts in the match. The United academy product could only win one duel attempt.
Barcelona safely reached the next round, finishing fifth in the table.
Jack Moorhouse
The Irishman played 45 minutes of Leyton Orient’s 0-3 loss at Doncaster Rovers on Tuesday night.
He completed 88% of his passes and had two progressive carries in the match.
Moorhouse was poor defensively, though, failing to win a tackle or any of his duel attempts.
Ethan Ennis
Fleetwood Town’s Ennis was also in action as they defeated Harrogate Town 2-1 away from home.
He failed to complete any of his six crosses and did not have any shot at goal during his time on the pitch.
Ennis was successful in two dribbles and won four ground duels during the match.
Dan Gore
Gore came on as a halftime substitute as Rotherham United beat Northampton Town 2-1.
He had one key pass and completed 86% of his passes.
Gore also won both his ground duels but lost his aerial contest.
Harry Amass
Finally, Amass made his debut for Norwich City on Monday night in the Canaries’ impressive 2-1 win over Coventry City.
He played the final 15 minutes, making one interception and winning an aerial duel.
