Napoli 'calls for help' from Man Utd

The reigning Serie A champions want Rasmus Hojlund in the final days of the summer transfer window.

Napoli want to borrow Hojlund.

The new season has not yet started but Napoli received a shock when their main striker Romelu Lukaku was injured. According to the announcement from the Naples club, "Big Rom" can only return in October, thereby leaving a huge gap in the attack.

In this context, Napoli are said to have contacted Manchester United. According to Fichajes, the Diego Armando Maradona team wants to borrow Rasmus Hojlund or Joshua Zirkzee. However, MU announced that they have no intention of letting Zirkzee leave. The Dutch player is still in the plans of coach Ruben Amorim.

Before Napoli, AC Milan offered to borrow Hojlund but the striker born in 2003 refused. However, the appearance of Napoli and the opportunity to compete for titles and a ticket to play in the Champions League could make the former Atalanta star change his mind.

Hojlund is considered suitable for the philosophy that coach Antonio Conte is building. The 22-year-old star has a good physical foundation and often supports the defense. Serie A with its not-so-high playing speed could be a suitable environment for Hojlund to find himself again.

In addition to Hojlund, Napoli also has a few backup names such as Artem Dovbyk (AS Roma) and Alexander Sorloth (Atletico Madrid). Both are quality strikers but have had tactical problems at their home clubs.
