Man United and Napoli Agree Hojlund Loan With Champions League-Linked Obligation to Buy

Completion hinges on personal terms plus a medical.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report an agreement for a season-long loan with a €6m fee and a €44m obligation to buy if Napoli qualify for the Champions League.
  • The move is not finalized, with United awaiting confirmation that Rasmus Hojlund has accepted personal terms before sanctioning the transfer.
  • Italian reports say the striker has been cleared to travel for medical checks, with additional details including a €90m release clause and a 5% sell-on for United reported by Football Italia.
  • Hojlund has been omitted from Ruben Amorim’s recent matchday squads after United invested heavily in forwards Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo.
  • Napoli turned to Hojlund after Romelu Lukaku suffered a thigh injury expected to sideline him for months, leaving Lorenzo Lucca as their only senior centre-forward.
