Manchester United loannee Rasmus Hojlund has been handed another boost as his successful loan spell at Napoli nears its conclusion

Rasmus Hojlund’s estimated value has increased to roughly £92million, though Manchester United are set to sell him for much less. The Denmark international has spent the 2025/26 season on-loan at Napoli with several strong performances seeing his stock rise considerably.

The latest figure from CIES Football Observatory’s Estimated Transfer Values tool for Hojlund is a maximum of €106m (£91.5m) and a minimum of €91m (£78.6m). United paid Fiorentina £64m to sign him in August 2023, with it seeming as though he will be moved on permanently three years later.

A €44m (£38m) buy-obligation was inserted into his Napoli loan switch with that set to be triggered as Antonio Conte’s side are on course to qualify for next season’s Champions League. Hojlund has been key to their strong domestic campaign with 10 goals and four assists from 29 appearances.

A good run of goals has also seen his market value increase after it dipped to just €35m (£30m), as per transfermarkt, when he struggled for form under Ruben Amorim. Since playing under Conte, as of late March, €50m (£43.1m) has been listed as what he is worth.

Though United are set to lose at least £24m on Hojlund, no funds are needed for his replacement with Benjamin Sesko signed last summer. He has netted 10 Premier League goals since joining from RB Leipzig with the striker reaching double-figures during United’s win over Brentford on Monday.

Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha were also brought into the club as attacking signings to replace Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho and Antony.

Cunha missed the 2-1 victory earlier this week through a minor injury, but Champions League football for next season at Old Trafford is all-but secured with four games to go. A win over bitter rivals Liverpool will seal their return to Europe’s top competition.

United could yet play a role in what other teams end up doing next season as they are still to play Sunderland and Brighton, who are both chasing Europe, and 16th-placed Nottingham Forest.

Despite leading United to a minimum top-five finish, interim head coach Michael Carrick may not get the role permanently with other candidates under consideration.

Oliver Glasner, Andoni Iraola and Luis Enrique are just a few names that have been linked, with international managers such as Julian Nagelsmann and Carlo Ancelotti mooted.

Having won nine games out of a possible 13 in charge, Carrick is in a great position to take the job for the long-term and be in the hot seat for a big summer transfer window.

Midfield appears to be the priority for United with limited depth already in that department and Casemiro leaving at the end of the season.

Carlton Blues vs St Kilda Saints Preview

St Kilda enters with renewed confidence following a dominant victory, showcasing improved ball movement and forward efficiency. Carlton, by contrast, continues to battle inconsistency despite periods of strong pressure. The Saints’ high-pressure style and clean disposal could expose the Blues’ ongoing struggles transitioning the ball. With momentum building and a potential return to the top eight in sight, St Kilda appears well positioned to control the tempo and secure a hard-fought win.

The 2026 Cadillac Championship continues on Friday, May 1, with the second round at Trump National Doral. You can find full Cadillac Championship tee times for Friday’s second round at the bottom of this post.

Featured tee time for Round 2

Justin Rose is hoping this week’s return to Trump Doral sees him return to the winner’s circle. And there’s reason to believe he could do just that at this week’s Cadillac Championship. Rose won the 2012 WGC-Cadillac Championship at the Blue Monster course, host of this year’s Cadillac.

Rose already has one PGA Tour victory on the season, having captured the title at the 2026 Farmers Insurance Open in January. That represented the 13th win of his Tour career. He finished T3 at the Masters in early April.

Adding more intrigue is the fact that Rose announced a new club sponsorship with McLaren Golf this week, and he’s putting the new irons into play for the first time at Doral.

Whether that will help him top the likes of World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and Alex Fitzpatrick at the Cadillac is yet to be seen.

Rose will tee off for the second round on Friday at 2:15 p.m. ET alongside Adam Scott.

You can watch Friday’s second round of the 2026 Cadillac Championship from 3-7 p.m. ET on Golf Channel. PGA Tour Live on ESPN+ will provide exclusive early streaming coverage starting at 8:30 a.m. ET on Friday, in addition to featured group and featured hole coverage.

Sydney Swans vs Melbourne Demons Preview

A genuine top-four test awaits as Sydney hosts Melbourne at the SCG. The Swans have set the benchmark offensively this season, combining scoring power with a disciplined defensive setup. Melbourne has impressed with recent wins, led by Kozzie Pickett’s influence, but faces a significant step up against Sydney’s balanced system. The Swans’ ability to apply pressure and convert inside 50 entries may stretch the Demons’ defence, particularly on the tighter SCG ground. Expect Sydney to dictate terms if their forward line fires.

Penrith Panthers vs Manly Sea Eagles Odds

Penrith Panthers vs Manly Sea Eagles Preview

Penrith remains the benchmark of the competition, responding emphatically last week to reaffirm their premiership credentials. Manly, however, arrives with renewed energy, unbeaten since a coaching change and playing with greater attacking freedom. While the Panthers’ system and consistency make them formidable, recent close calls highlight they are not untouchable. The Sea Eagles’ resurgence adds intrigue, and if they can match Penrith’s intensity early, they may keep the contest competitive deep into the second half.

Bob Olinger rode off into retirement with victory in the Champion Stayers Hurdle on day three of the Punchestown Festival.

Ridden by Darragh O’Keefe, the Henry de Bromhead-trained 11-year-old (4-1) saw off Willie Mullins’ Jimmy Du Seuil (9-1) and pre-race favourite Teahupoo (5-4) who was seeking a third consecutive triumph in the race.

It capped a remarkable 11-win career that produced three at Cheltenham, as he rolled back the years to go out on a high.

Teahupoo led as they headed down the final stretch of the three-mile circuit, but Bob Olinger had closed the gap by the final fence and had more in the tank to open a gap.

While Jimmy Du Seuil applied late pressure, it just was not enough as Bob Olinger had three-quarters of a length to spare.

The Novice Chase went the way of Salvator Mundi (13-2) who took advantage of a fall from favourite Kopek Des Bordes.

With Mullins’ new retained jockey Harry Cobden onboard, it was a case of taking advantage of his stablemate’s misfortune two fences from home to claim the win.

Kopek Des Bordes seemed to be in full control before the fall with Salvator Mundi, who was on his coattails, galloping to a 12-length win from second place Irish Panther (15-2) and Jacob’s Ladder (18-1) in third.
