Former Napoli striker Bruno Giordano admits he's been impressed by Rasmus Hojlund.
On-loan from Manchester United, the Denmark centre-forward scored twice in the midweek Champions League win against Sporting CP.
Giordano enthused to La Gazzetta dello Sport: "Perfectly in line with the history of a club that has had so many: Vinicio, Altafini, Clerici; then Careca; and now Cavani, Higuain, Osimhen, Mertens who became one, Lukaku.
Despite his experience with Manchester United, Hojlund remains just 22 years old and watching him play, Giordano ventured to also say: "To me, his movement, his ability to run away, reminds me a lot of (Erling) Haaland.
"They belong to the same generation. One has already scored a lot, the other promises to do so."

The verdict from former Manchester United's greats would be so different, even after scoring 2 goals. I believe they are a major reason why new players and infact all ManUtd players find it so hard to perform for Manchester United.
well Said it's impossible to the players at this point

Hojlund needs no recognition, he's good and he'll get much better at Napoli 👍🏻

Jeez… enough with all the agenda, the season is just starting, wait until May 2026 then we can conclude if he’s had a good season or bad.

The problem is that Manchester United hadn't got a manger, they just have a claimed football coach who doesn't know what to do let alone what he is doing. Almost all the players he has chased are flourishing elsewhere. Very unfortunate.
