Napoli are making a final push to sign Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund, offering a substantial pay raise and negotiating a potential loan deal with an obligation to buy.

Napoli are intensifying efforts to sign Rasmus Hojlund from Manchester United, with the Italian club reportedly willing to offer the striker a significant pay raise. According to reports, Napoli is prepared to propose a salary of up to €4.5 million, surpassing Hojlund’s current €2.8 million wages at Old Trafford.

The negotiations between Napoli and Manchester United are ongoing, with both parties seeking a final agreement.

Hojlund’s agent is still in talks with Napoli, and the player is open to joining the Partenopei. However, the transfer details are yet to be finalized, with Hojlund hoping for a permanent transfer or a loan move with an obligation to buy.

The potential transfer package could be worth around €50 million, including add-ons. Napoli may insist on a loan deal with an option to buy, but they’re willing to consider an obligation to buy if Hojlund doesn’t accept the initial proposal. 

Hojlund’s time at Manchester United has been underwhelming, with the striker scoring only a few goals in the Premier League last season. In contrast, his reputation in Italy remains strong, thanks to his impressive performances at Atalanta. Napoli, under Antonio Conte, are looking to bolster their attacking lineup after losing Romelu Lukaku to a thigh injury.

Hojlund’s ability to make a difference in transition could be a valuable asset for Napoli. Additionally, the prospect of playing alongside Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku might appeal to the Danish striker.

As negotiations continue, the fate of Hojlund’s career hangs in the balance. A move to Napoli could provide the striker with a fresh start and an opportunity to revive his career. With both parties working towards a final agreement, the transfer saga is expected to unfold in the coming days.
