Napoli, Hojlund’s first day: Denmark goal to possible Fiorentina debut | OneFootball

Rasmus Hojlund has officially begun his adventure wearing the Napoli shirt. The Danish striker, acquired on loan from Manchester United with an obligation to buy for a total fee of around 50 million euros, as reported by SKY, arrived this morning at Castel Volturno after his commitments with his national team.

Hojlund at Castel Volturno: the Dane at Conte’s disposal

Fresh off a 3-0 victory against Greece, in which he also scored a goal, Hojlund landed in Naples in the morning and reached the training center by taxi directly from the airport. Starting today, he will be available to Antonio Conte, who will assess him ahead of the next league fixture: the away match in Florence against Fiorentina, scheduled for Saturday, September 13 at 8:45 PM. The arrival of the center forward opens up interesting scenarios for Napoli’s attacking setup. Conte has not yet made a decision regarding the starting lineup, but the possibility of seeing Hojlund on the pitch from the first minute is not excluded. The coach will decide based on the player’s physical condition, as he has just finished his international duties.

In the meantime, Napoli heads into the fixture with two wins from the first two league matches: 2-0 against Sassuolo with goals from McTominay and De Bruyne, and 1-0 against Cagliari with a late strike from Anguissa. Now, an intense period begins for the Azzurri, with six matches to be played in less than a month before the next international break in October.
