Overview
- Rasmus Hojlund is scoreless in four straight Napoli matches, with his last club goal on October 5 after a brief injury layoff.
- During the 2–0 loss at Bologna he played 90 minutes but recorded one shot, created no chances, and struggled in duels, according to FotMob data.
- Italy’s refereeing designator Gianluca Rocchi said Hojlund should have been sent off for an elbow on Lewis Ferguson, though he was only booked.
- Antonio Conte praised Hojlund’s effort and movement, calling him perhaps the best player on the pitch, while a CBS Sports Golazo panel criticized his first touch and link-up play.
- Napoli have failed to win their last three games and sit fourth in Serie A, and Hojlund’s loan includes a clause that would make the move permanent if the club qualifies for the Champions League.
