Man Utd star on his way to Napoli in £40m deal

Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund is reportedly on his way to Napoli on a season-long loan with an obligation to buy next summer.

The Denmark international has been deemed surplus to requirements by the Red Devils following the arrival of Benjamin Sesko this month.

Hojlund has been told to pursue a new club, and Napoli are now on the verge of landing his signature on an initial loan deal worth £5m.

As part of the deal, the Serie A champions are set to agree a mandatory £40m buy clause for the striker's transfer at the end of the campaign.

Hojlund was reluctant to commit to Napoli without the clause. It appears only a matter of time before the Dane makes the switch.

Alongside Hojlund, the Red Devils are expected to offload Alejandro Garnacho to Chelsea. He could leave for around £40m with add-ons.

Antony could be on his way out as well. Real Betis are close to landing him for a £3m loan fee with an obligation to buy for around £33m.
