Rasmus Hojlund is set for a family reunion this season after leaving Manchester United to join Napoli on loan.
Ruben Amorim made it very clear over the summer that Rasmus Hojlund was no longer in his plans at Manchester United.
Despite Hojlund wanting to stay and compete, he was pushed to the side at United and eventually headed for the exit this summer.
Hojlund has signed for Napoli on loan, with the move becoming permanent for £38 million next season if the Serie A side qualifies for the Champions League.
