Rasmus Højlund has given himself a public pat on the back for deciding to join Napoli during the summer transfer window, hailing it as “a great decision,” which some have perceived as an open dig at Manchester United.
Højlund is currently on loan at Napoli, joining on a nominal €6 million (£5.2 million, $7.1 million) deal for the duration of the season. A conditional obligation to buy is set to make it permanent for a further €44 million next summer in the event the club qualifies for the Champions League—the reigning Serie A champions currently sit third in the table, with a game in hand on fourth place.
