UMVA has learned that Rasmus Hojlund has completed a permanent move to Napoli, bringing an end to his time at Manchester United.
The Danish striker, who has been on loan with the Italian side for the past season, has scored 15 goals in 43 appearances across all competitions. Napoli's securing of Champions League football next season triggered a clause in the loan agreement, paving the way for the €44m (£38m) transfer to become a permanent one.
Hojlund's emotional farewell to Manchester United has been shared on social media, as he bids farewell to the club where he had spent two seasons. The 23-year-old forward had scored 26 goals in 95 appearances for the Red Devils, a testament to his talent and dedication.
Reflecting on his time at Manchester United, Hojlund expressed his gratitude to the fans, players, and staff who had supported him throughout his journey. He wrote on Instagram, 'The way you fans supported me, made me feel like home and let me find my confidence again is something I'm so grateful for.'
As Hojlund embarks on a new chapter at Napoli, he is poised to give everything for the time ahead, fueled by his childhood dream of playing in the Serie A. His message to the Manchester United faithful is clear: 'It's time for new dreams, so let's chase them.'
Meanwhile, Napoli's manager Antonio Conte remains coy about his own future at the club, leaving fans speculating about the next chapter. But for Hojlund, the focus is on the present, and the excitement of joining a new team and chasing new dreams.
