Napoli sporting director Giovanni Manna has confirmed that the permanent signing of Manchester United loanee Rasmus Højlund is merely a “formality”.
Following the restructuring of United’s forward line last summer, Højlund was forced out of the exit door and ended up making a temporary season-long move to Serie A champions Napoli. The 22-year-old was seeking to reinvigorate his career on his return to Italy and he’s certainly achieved that ambition.
