Club insider reveals five teams are interested in Spurs star – Fully expected to be sold
Tottenham insider, Paul O’Keefe, reveals that five teams are interested in signing Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg this summer and the midfielder is fully expected to leave North London.
While Hojbjerg only played 90 minutes four times for Spurs in the Premier League this season, he was one of Ange Postecoglou’s most-used players. The Dane appeared in 36 of the 38 league games this year.
However, it appears the likes of Yves Bissouma, Pape Matar Sarr, and Rodrigo Bentancur are all above Hojbjerg in the current Spurs pecking order, with Lucas Bergvall and more new signings set to arrive this summer.
It has long since been reported that the former Southampton man is expected to be sold this summer, with TransferMarkt listing his current value at around £17.1 million.
Football Insider recently reported that Spurs have given the Dane the green light to find a new club, with Juventus, AC Milan and Napoli all taking an interest in the midfielder.
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is a popular player this summer
While O’Keefe has not named the clubs interested in Hojbjerg, he suggests there is a race for the Spurs star’s signature this summer, which will only bode well for his price tag.
He tweeted: ‘Pierre-Emile Højbjerg has interest from 5 clubs aboard. Italy, Germany and Spain and it’s fully expected he departs this summer.’
Spurs Web Opinion:
Hojbjerg is a great player but is far better suited to a defensive team. I think he would suit Serie A or Atletico Madrid down to the ground and Spurs should get their money back on him this summer. He deserves a lot of respect for his service to Spurs these past years.
