Anders Hojlund, the father of the number 19 in blue, spoke to the microphones of “Il Mattino” where he discussed his son's initial impressions under the shadow of Vesuvius.

Naples, Hojlund's father and his son are crazy about you: “I tried to convey the importance of hard work to him, he immediately fell in love with the city”

Speaking to the microphones of “Il Mattino”, a well-known newspaper of the Neapolitan city, Rasmus Hojlund's father, Anders, talked about the first part of his son's adventure under the shadow of Vesuvius, highlighting all the positive aspects. These are his statements: “Rasmus and Naples? My son is crazy about the city, the team, and the fans. Rasmus has been interested in football practically from the start, when he was very little. In general, sports have always attracted him a lot, thanks to me and his mother. In kindergarten, he was already a big sports enthusiast and at the age of 4, he started playing for his first club.

“Work? It's true, I was a footballer, but first and foremost, I tried to convey to Rasmus the importance of hard work. I always told him that working hard is essential to achieving his dream. I remember perfectly the first time he talked to me about his desire to become a footballer. I remember it as if it happened yesterday. I was sitting with him and talking about football in his room, looking at a poster of Cristiano Ronaldo. At that point, he turned to me and said, “I want to be as good as Cristiano!” All I could do was tell him how much he would need to start training hard, and we with him. Because we have always been by his side and supported him from the very first moment.”
