Benjamin Sesko has playing time in 14 games, United’s new striker investment has given the club 2 goals so far. On Thursday, Man Utd’s previous investment in the No. 9 position could send a jab to the club that weighed him too lightly.
Napoli won the Italian Supercoppa final after a 2-0 win over Bologna, Rasmus Hojlund posted a post on Instagram with the caption a short text.

-This is what a good decision looks like.
The picture shows Rasmus Højlund with a big smile and the Supercoppa trophy in his hands.
The messages can of course be interpreted as a jab at Manchester United and Ruben Amorim, who weighed the Dane too lightly in the summer, even though the 22-year-old himself was determined to bend his neck and earn playing time in the red shirt. 7 goals in 19 goals in the Napoli shirt and now also the cup title, gives the Dane every reason to smile.
Hojlund helped secure victory in the semi-final against AC Milan on Thursday with a goal and an assist, but from the start in the Supercoppa final against Bologna, the United striker was on the pitch throughout the match to the title for Napoli.

Then you have reason to be a little breezy. Antonio Conte gives the 22-year-old full confidence, Amorim did not. Napoli were able to lift the first trophy after the Dane’s arrival four months ago. In Serie A, Napoli and Hojlund are in title contention, in a position to take their back-to-back title.
No wonder Højlund smiles again.
