Denmark coach Hjulmand: Important Marsch wants Kristensen at Leeds

Denmark coach Kasper Hjulmand is happy seeing Rasmus Kristensen move to Leeds United.

The Danish fullback leaves RB Salzburg for Leeds.

Hjulmand said, "As a player, you are happy when a coach wants you, and here he knows the coach (Jesse Marsch) and has worked with him before. It is the coach who really wants him in, where you can sometimes be a little in doubt whether it is the coach. That's it in this case, and it's an important thing for a player.

"Now he goes to the Premier League, which starts on August 6 and runs every third or fourth day from there all the way up to the World Cup, so there will be a fight on, and that's cool for NK.

"Leeds is a place full of football, so I am happy on behalf of NK, and I think it fits really well."
