In the January transfer window, Tottenham Hotspur has been focusing on both the new arrivals and departures.
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is one player who may be leaving North London this month.
Hojbjerg has been a consistent midfield player for Spurs since moving from Southampton, although Ange Postecoglou has curtailed his playing time.
The majority of his efforts this season have come from the bench, as the Australian has favored Pape Matar Sarr and Yves Bissouma over him.
The Danish midfielder is reportedly actively seeking a move out of the team and has even engaged a new layer to speed up the process due to the lack of playing time.
Juve, one of the biggest teams in Serie A, has been heavily linked to a bid for him.
Numerous reports, including those from the Italian outlet TuttoMercatoWeb, have verified the Turin-based side’s interest. They stated that Spurs would only allow the player to go on loan if the Turin-based team consented to a contract that required them to purchase the player for €30 million the following season.
But the Bianconeri, who intended to recruit Hojbjerg as a stopgap until the end of the season and then decide on a plan in June, think that the Lilywhites’ asking price is too high.
The Italian team may give up on the former Southampton player as a result. The Juventus director has formally ruled out the signing, according to Fabrizio Romano’s report.
Giuntoli declared that they will not pursue Kalvin Phillips of Manchester City or Hojbjerg. He declared:
Is it Pierre-Emile Højbjerg or Kalvin Phillips? We don’t currently see any opportunities from a technological or economical standpoint.
“We only look for the right opportunities and we can’t see anyone as of right now. We are not forced to sign a new player.”
Says TBH:
Due to their current financial difficulties, Juventus’ director has ruled out a move for Hojbjerg; but, if they are able to purchase a midfield player this window, it seems that Spurs would like to get go of him.
A number of players, notably Kalvin Phillips and Conor Gallagher, have been connected to them.
Hojbjerg, meanwhile, is rumored to have other choices as well. Fulham is among the Premier League teams who reportedly expressed interest in signing him.
