Transfer Breakdown
Serie A club Napoli are prepared to offer Denmark striker Rasmus Hojlund a move away from Manchester United if the Premier League club is willing to take a financial hit on the 22-year-old, who cost them £72m last summer.
Hojlund has had a mixed season at Old Trafford, with flashes of brilliance but struggles for consistency in front of goal.
Why This Move?
For Napoli, signing Hojlund would be a bold attempt to reinforce their attack, especially if Victor Osimhen leaves in the summer.
For Manchester United, selling Hojlund at a loss may free up funds for other signings, though they may hesitate to part with a young striker after just one season.
For Hojlund, a move to Italy could offer more consistent game time and a fresh environment to develop.
Expert Opinion
Serie A expert Fabrizio Romano commented on the links:
🗣️ “Napoli have been following Hojlund since his Atalanta days. If he becomes available, they will push hard to sign him.”
Former Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov also weighed in:
🗣️ “Hojlund has talent, but patience is needed. Selling him too soon could be a mistake.”
