Napoli Poised to Add €85m Release Clause to Hojlund Contract in 2027, per Reports

The clause would take effect only after a permanent move that depends on Napoli qualifying for the Champions League.

Overview

  • Corriere dello Sport, cited by multiple outlets, reports an €85m release clause would be written into Rasmus Hojlund’s deal and become valid in summer 2027 if his transfer is made permanent.
  • Hojlund is on loan from Manchester United with an option that becomes an obligation to buy if Napoli secure Champions League qualification.
  • Fee details differ across reports, with some citing a single €50m figure and others describing a €6m loan plus a €44m option structure.
  • The 22-year-old has seven goals and three assists for Napoli this season, and he credited Antonio Conte for his development after choosing the move once United told him he was not in their plans.
  • Napoli initially moved for Hojlund after Romelu Lukaku’s injury created an opening, and Conte has publicly highlighted the striker’s tactical growth and fit in his system.
