William Osula will be hoping to take his strong international form into pre-season at Newcastle United.
Osula impressed for the Denmark U21s during their run to the quarter-finals in the U21 European Championship, after a mixed season at Newcastle United.
Newcastle are excited about Osula’s potential but the 21-year-old started only three games all season, none of which came in the Premier League.
Still, with Callum Wilson potentially leaving St James’ Park this summer, Osula could be called upon next season.
With that in mind, it was promising to see the striker in fine form for his country. Osula scored three goals and laid on two assists in four games before Denmark were beaten by France.
On Tuesday, the forward posted a video of himself in action and two Manchester United players responded.

Patrick Dorgu and Chido Obi respond to William Osula’s post
Osula posted some clips of his performances during the tournament.
Man United duo Patrick Dorgu and Chido Obi were among those who responded.

Dorgu, who Sky Sports suggest cost £30million in January, wrote: “More to come.”
Old Trafford teammate and compatriot – the exciting young striker Chido-Obi – also reacted with a shocked face emoji.
How much did Newcastle United pay for William Osula?
Newcastle paid £10million for Osula, which could prove to be a bargain.
Indeed, Newcastle will keep Osula this summer despite loan interest from Championship clubs, such is their excitement about his potential.
While expecting him to oust Alexander Isak in a starting berth seems ludicrous, next season could be a big campaign for the Danish youth international.
The Champions League campaign will add more games to Newcastle’s schedule. Isak cannot possibly play every single fixture, while Osula has surely overtaken Wilson in the pecking order even if the veteran forward ends up staying.
With that in mind, Osula could be in line for a lot more game time.
