Rasmus Højlund, the 22-year-old Danish Centre-Forward currently playing for Manchester United, may be on his way to SSC Napoli.
With a market value of €35.00m (approximately DKK 260 million), Højlund has caught the attention of the Serie A leaders, who are keen to strengthen their squad.
Højlund has had a challenging season with the Red Devils, who currently sit in 15th place in the Premier League. Despite this, he has managed to score four goals in 32 appearances this season. The 191 cm tall striker, weighing 86 kg, has shown potential that Napoli seems eager to harness.
Napoli, currently at the top of the Serie A with 82 points, are looking to bolster their attack line. With the transfer window closing on August 31, the Italian club is running out of time to secure Højlund’s signature.
While Manchester United may be reluctant to let go of their young talent, a move to Napoli could offer Højlund the chance to compete at the highest level in the Champions League. However, with his contract with United set to run until 2028, any potential transfer deal is likely to command a significant fee.
As we approach the closing stages of the transfer window, it remains to be seen whether Højlund will swap the Premier League for Serie A.
