The negotiation enters the critical hours: the Azzurri club and Manchester United are discussing a loan with a conditional obligation.

Hojlund closer to Napoli: decisive meeting today to finalize the deal

Napoli is ready to give Antonio Conte the much-anticipated offensive reinforcement: Rasmus Hojlund is one step away from wearing the Azzurri jersey. After reaching a preliminary agreement with the Danish striker, the Neapolitan club is finalizing details with Manchester United, aiming to close the deal within the next 24 hours.

The operation's formula: loan with a conditional purchase obligation

Yesterday, a new meeting between the management teams allowed further progress, but the main issue remains the transfer formula. Napoli proposes a paid loan of 5 million euros, with a purchase obligation set at around 40 million, conditional on achieving specific objectives: number of appearances, goals scored, and qualification for the Champions League.

Manchester United, on the other hand, is pushing for the obligation to be unconditional, thus ensuring the certainty of a permanent transfer. However, both parties are working to find a compromise that can satisfy both clubs.

The next few hours will be decisive

An agreement with the player has already been reached, and Hojlund has expressed his desire to move to Napoli, convinced by the technical project and the opportunity to be a key player in a team aiming high. The outcome of the negotiation will depend on the agreement on the formula, but there is optimism: Napoli's goal is to finalize in time to allow the striker to be available to Conte for the next official match.
