Napoli and Juventus to compete for Man United star amid Osimhen links

Faruq Ibrahim 23:07 - 15.04.2025

Manchester United could have customers from Italy this summer for one of their struggling stars.

Serie A behemoths Juventus and Napoli have reportedly registered interest in Manchester United's striker Rasmus Hojlund ahead of the summer transfer window. 

The 22-year-old Danish striker joined the Red Devils in the summer of 2023, tasked with solving their goal-scoring problems. However, he has only managed 24 goals in 86 games at the club.

Manchester United are already set to move on, as they have been linked to the likes of Liam Delap and Victor Osimhen, and making the former Atalanta striker available on the market.

Interest from Italy

The Red Devils appreciated Hojlund's talents after his showing with La Dea, prompting them to splash a reported €73 million to bring him to the club. While he has struggled in England, clubs in Italy are aware of his quality and still believe in his talent.

Two such clubs are Juventus, preparing to offload Dusan Vlahovic, and Napoli, in search of a more permanent replacement for Victor Osimhen, in the wake of Romelu Lukaku’s inconsistency this season.

According to GFNI, both clubs have added him to their summer transfer window shopping cart; however, they would have to match Manchester United’s ask of €50 million.
