Rasmus Hojlund shares cheeky caption about decision to leave Manchester United after winning trophy with Napoli

On-loan Manchester United hitman Rasmus Hojlund shared his thoughts after winning the Supercoppa Italiana with SSC Napoli on Monday (December 22), beating Bologna 2-0.

In the title match in the Saudi Arabian capital of Riyadh, David Neres struck either side of the break for the Serie A holders, blasting home from distance before capitalising on a defensive lapse.

It marked the Partenopei's second title in eight months, and Hojlund's first with the club since arriving at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on a season-long stint in the summer.

Although he didn't have a goal contribution in the final, Hojlund, 22, scored one and assisted the other in the 2-0 semi-final win over eight-time winners AC Milan. Following the victory over Bologna, the former United man posted a picture of himself with the trophy on Instagram and wrote:

The post attracted a comment from another United player - midfielder Scott McTominay - who posted three emojis.

Hojlund has netted seven times and assisted thrice in 19 games across competitions for Antonio Conte's side, including four strikes and two assists in 11 outings in Serie A. The Partenopei are third in the league, two points behind leaders Inter Milan and one adrift of the Rossoneri.

How did Rasmus Hojlund fare for Manchester United last season?

Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund endured a forgettable 2024-25 campaign, scoring just 10 times and assisting four in 52 games across competitions.

That includes four strikes and an assist in 32 matches in the Premier League, where the Red Devils finished a lowly 15th, a whopping 42 points behind winners Liverpool. Hojlund went scoreless in five coombined outings in the FA Cup and the EFL Cup.

Overall, the lanky Dane - who arrived at Old Trafford from Atalanta in the summer of 2023 - has 26 goals and six assists in 95 games across competitions for the Red Devils. His contract at Old Trafford runs out at the end of the season.

Going by his post-game social media post on Monday following Napoli's Supercopa Italiana triumph, it appears he might have already played his last for Ruben Amorim's side.
