Rasmus Hojlund makes feelings on Man United transfer decision clear as Scott McTominay celebrates trophy with cigar

Wait 5 sec.

Rasmus Hojlund had Manchester United on his mind as he celebrated winning his first piece of silverware with Napoli on Monday night. The 22-year-old left Man United after a nightmare spell in the summer to join ex-Red Devils star Scott McTominay in Naples.Hojlund celebrated his first trophy as a Napoli player on Monday eveningGettyAfter signing for United in 2023 for £72million, he went on to score 26 goals in 95 appearances and eventually found himself sidelined.Hojlund was left out of the squad by manager Ruben Amorim at the start of this campaign for their season-opener against Arsenal.That exile came with Amorim and co. looking to sell the Dane after signing Benjamin Sesko, despite him coming out publicly to say he wanted to remain at the club and fight for his future.It led to him admitting defeat and accepting a loan move to Napoli – a switch that now has seemingly reignited his career.The Serie A giants won the Italian Super Cup on Monday night, beating Bologna 2-0 thanks to a David Neres double.Hojlund played the whole 90 minutes and helped his side claim their first trophy of the season and his first title at the club.It means he has already matched the amount of silverware he won as a Man United player and he posted about his old side post-match.Alongside a picture of him holding the Super Cup trophy, he wrote the caption: “What a great decision looks like.” The post largely hints at his ‘decision’ being to reluctantly leave Man United in the end, following his transfer saga last summer.And it has ended up with him getting his hands on a title in Italy.Hojlund appeared to make a subtle dig at Man United after lifting some silverwareGettyReignited career Hojlund scored four Premier League goals in his last season as a Man United player, but he has already hit that tally in Serie A.He has four goals and one assist to his name in just 11 league appearances for Napoli, who have an obligation to buy the forward for £38m if they qualify for the Champions League.On top of that, he also has two European strikes on his record and another in the Italian Super Cup semi-final.It means he has seven goals in 19 appearances in all competitions, starting almost every game as Napoli’s main striker.Antonio Conte has given Hojlund a new lease of life and it appears he’s more than happy to be away from Old Trafford.Conte said after his side won another title: “Hojlund and McTominay were not playing at Manchester United, so there must be a reason given the work done by me and my staff. I believe our job is to expand a player’s knowledge and make him stronger.”Hojlund and McTominay find themselves in dreamland in Italy after leaving UnitedinstagramMcTominay celebrated the Super Cup win with a cigar in the dressing roominstagramCelebratory cigarMcTominay has become a superstar in Italy since leaving Man United in the summer of 2024 for Napoli.Last season, he won the Serie A title under Conte and picked up the Player of the Season award for his performances.During those celebrations, the Scotsman, who has also led his country to the 2026 World Cup, was seen smoking.
