Napoli have initiated fresh transfer talks with Manchester United outcast Rasmus Hojlund, as they look to replace the injured Romelu Lukaku in their squad. Hojlund has been part of Amorim's 'bomb squad' since the start of United's pre-season and with Benjamin Sesko's arrival at the club, it is evident that the Danish forward no longer features in the United coach's plans.
Rasmus Hojlund is in line for a reunion with Scott McTominay as Napoli are reportedly attempting to hijack AC Milan's move for the Manchester United striker. Antonio Conte had placed his faith in Romelu Lukaku to lead Napoli’s title defence, but that plan is in tatters after the Belgian powerhouse pulled up with a thigh problem in a pre-season clash with Olympiakos. The injury will rule him out for around three months, leaving Napoli scrambling to find a reliable replacement.
Jack Grealish’s switch from Manchester City to Everton has drawn sharp reactions from the Italian press as they believe Napoli have "dodged a bullet" by missing out on the winger. The Toffees have secured the England international on a season-long loan deal which includes the option to buy him outright for £50m next summer.
