Hojlund on Napoli revival after disheartening Manchester United exit: ‘I’m just doing my job’

Napoli forward Rasmus Hojlund reflected on his goal and another crucial win for the Partenopei , speaking to DAZN and Sky Sport after the 2-1 victory over Genoa at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.

The Danish striker, decisive once again under Antonio Conte , highlighted his growing confidence and consistency since his arrival from Manchester United in the summer.

“I don’t think I’ve changed much,” Hojlund told DAZN, with quotes via IlNapolista .

“I’m just doing my job and working day by day to give my best and bring something to the team.”

Conte was seen gesturing from the touchline, a moment Højlund later explained.

“He saw I was a bit tired and told me to use my head – he needed that from me, a bit of clarity to refresh myself and keep playing,” he revealed.

Speaking to Sky Sport, Hojlund praised Napoli’s resilience through a demanding week.

“Winning twice in a week at the Maradona is huge,” he said. “Maybe today wasn’t our best performance, but taking all three points was the most important thing.”
