Napoli will make Rasmus Hojlund deal permanent

Napoli will make the loan deal of Rasmus Hojlund permanent, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The well-known and well-respected Italian journalist has claimed that Manchester United will be able to make money off of Hojlund, who joined Napoli on loan from the Red Devils in the summer of 2025.

Romano said on his YouTube channel: “Very good news for Man Utd because Napoli confirm that they believe the obligation for Rasmus Hojlund will be just a formality.

“It will happen in 2026. There were some stories about Napoli being limited in the market, not able to invest, but that’s not the case for Hojlund.

“United will have €50m from Hojlund’s deal (€44m obligation + €6m loan fee), and that is very important for news. It’s also the reason why they want to invest in 2026 because they will have fresh money from Hojlund’s deal.

“Then there’s also the Jadon Sancho situation, they hold a big sell-on clause for Mason Greenwood, and of course, the Marcus Rashford situation.

“For Manchester United, fresh money is coming.”
