Hojlund still hopes for a permanent transfer or a loan move with an obligation to buy, while the transfer package could be worth circa €50m including add-ons.

According to Gazzetta, Napoli will offer Hojlund a considerable pay raise, proposing a salary of up to €4.5m, much higher than his current €2.8m wages at Old Trafford.

On the other hand, however, the Partenopei may insist on a loan move with an option to buy, but, if the player won’t accept this transfer formula, they’d be ready to consider an obligation to buy.
