Naples midfielder Kevin de Bruin appeared to question the decision to allow Rasmus Hojlund to join Serie A.
The Red Devils brought Benjamin Sesco in the summer for a big deal from RB Leipzig, and Hosilund defeated the Old Trafford pecking order.
Man Utd put in great effort to improve attack power, and with the addition of Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, there was even less space on the front line.
Only fewer Premier League teams scored last season than Man UTD, where Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee scored only seven league goals in total.
Hojlund sets off for Serie A Giants Napoli on a loan agreement using an option to make the deal permanent for £38 million in the summer, and he has already contributed three goals in five matches in all competitions.
Denmark International defeated Sports CP 2-1 in the Champions League on Wednesday, when Hozilund ran in Napoli and hit the ground.

Hojlund said:
“It was a night playing in the Champions League and I like to talk about my performances about the team.
“It’s special to play with exceptional talent like Kevin De Bruin. I just need to enter space and he gets me the ball.”
De Bruin, who also moved to Naples in the summer, has both gotten assists for Hosilund’s goals, and the Man City legend suggested that Man UTD made a mistake to move the young striker.

De Bruyne said of Hojlund:
“It’s really important for him and his team. It’s a great night for him and it’ll help you get more goals with him.”
Naples boss Antonio Conte said of their performance against the sport:
Sports boss Louis Borges added:
“Players with Kevin de Bruin’s quality and experience make a big difference. We are proud, not disappointing.
“Let’s think about the game by game. We may not take tonight, and Napoli scored a winning goal. We had a great game for the whole team.”
