Rasmus Højlund has joined Napoli in a permanent move from Manchester United.
Hojlund spent last season on loan with Napoli and his permanent move was triggered by the Serie A side’s qualification for the Champions League.
The deal, which totals £43.2m ($58.1m) including last season’s loan fee, was confirmed on Wednesday.
Hojlund leaves Old Trafford three years after his £72m ($96.8m) move from Atalanta in 2023.

He scored 26 goals in 95 appearances for United, but was moved on last summer after the arrival of Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig.
Sources have told ESPN that the permanent element of Hojlund’s move to Napoli — worth around £38m ($51m) — will cover the fee committed to Atalanta for midfielder Éderson.
The Brazilian is set to join United in a deal worth an initial £35m ($47m), plus performance-related add-ons.
United are expecting further exits this summer. Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia and Jadon Sancho are all leaving on free transfers.

The club are also anticipating interest from Italy in striker Joshua Zirkzee and from Türkiye for second-choice goalkeeper Altay Bayindir. They are open to offers for midfielder Manuel Ugarte.
United are hopeful of securing moves for Marcus Rashford and Andre Onana, who spent last season on loan at Barcelona and Trabzonspor respectively.
Barcelona can trigger a permanent deal for Rashford for £26m ($35m) before June 15. Onana has been told he is not part of Michael Carrick’s plans for next season.
