Napoli manager Antonio Conte believes Rasmus Hojlund has the potential "to become a star."

Manchester United shipped out Hojlund on a season-long loan to Napoli on deadline day, which includes an obligation to make the deal permanent once certain conditions are met.

United banked a €6million (£5.2m) loan fee for Hojlund and will recieve €44m (£38m) next summer when the obligation is triggered. Hojlund scored an impressive brace against Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League last week, and found the back of the net against Genoa in Serie A on Sunday evening.

Hojlund is playing with a smile on his face again after three goals in five days. The striker is thriving back in Italy and Conte believes he possesses the potential to become a star.
