"Red Abandoned" Hoylund scored in a flash! Conte "finished" after the game: Man United produced, Napoli is really good

2:45pm, 15 September 2025【Football】

Serie A first round, Fiorentina 0-1 Napoli - it was neither KK nor Politano who scored the goal, but the "frustrated striker" Rasmus Hoylund who came on loan from Manchester United this summer. In the 63rd minute, Danish young player took over Anguysa and shot the defender with his left foot and shot dead in the corner. A "scoring the first show" ignited the Maradona Stadium.

After the game, Napoli coach Antonio Conte, who had always been ruthless, smiled happier than four consecutive wins in front of the DAZN camera: "We signed him to replace Lukaku, who was in short supply for a long time. The young man is only 22 years old, and his body, attitude, and potential are not lacking. As for the source of goods? Or the old place - Manchester United. After all, McTominay from there last year has already tasted the sweetness." After saying that, the Italian raised his eyebrows and smiled, and the reporter on the scene understood in seconds: This was clearly a "gentle knife" for Old Trafford.

Background board: Manchester United's "stop loss" and "slap in the face"

2024/25 season, Hoylund scored only 4 goals in the Premier League, and the Red Devils finally chose to "cut their losses", and ate Benjamin Shesco in the winter window, and put the Danes out of Napoli. Now Shesco is 0 goals in 4 games, Hoylund opens in 45 minutes - in contrast, the public opinion trend instantly reverses, and the British media collectively sang "Amorim is out of sight".

Data Talk

• Hoylund's debut in Serie A:

played for 63 minutes, scored 2 times on the right and 1 goal, 3 times successfully confronted, and 1 time of key pass.

• Shesco 4 rounds of the Premier League:

0 goals and 0 assists, expected goal (xG) 1.4, and a positive shot rate of 25%.

Conte's "Instruction Manual"

"The pace of Serie A is more 'half beat slower', but the space calculation is more precise," Conte revealed the training details. "We asked Hoylund to switch repeatedly between the 9th and 10th positions, using his bursting step after he got the ball behind his back. Today his goal against Fiorentina was a practice of the routine in training for a whole week."

Future trend

According to the "Roman Sports", the Naples lease includes a selective buyout clause of 28 million euros, and it can be triggered after 25 appearances. If the Danes maintain their current efficiency, the Germans will make the decision to become a regular person as soon as possible in the winter window. As for Manchester United, insiders admitted: "The better the player performs, the more likely we are to recover a considerable second transfer share, which is also a win-win situation."

Reporter's Notes

The fast pace of the Premier League once made Hoylund lose, but Serie A's "slow philosophy" allowed him to find himself. Conte's "finishing" is indeed spicy, but it also reminds all wealthy families: not all uncensored jade is suitable for the spotlight of Old Trafford. Sometimes, changing the stage can make you shine brightly - after all, there is no absolute parallel product in the world of football, only treasures placed in the wrong place.
