Overview
- The 22-year-old has four goals in six games for Napoli, including a debut strike, a Champions League brace against Sporting CP and a late winner versus Genoa.
- On Thursday he extended his hot streak for Denmark, scoring twice and providing an assist in a 6-0 World Cup qualifying win over Belarus.
- Speaking to Tipsbladet, he said little had changed beyond entering a good team and arriving fit after extra summer work off the pitch.
- Denmark coach Brian Riemer backed that view by stressing the value of a well-functioning side that services a striker, while pundits noted others thrive after leaving United and some analysts argued Hojlund still shared responsibility for past misses.
- He joined Napoli on a season-long loan with a reported obligation to buy at around £38m.
