According to the latest Football Insider report, Tottenham have informed Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg that he can leave in the upcoming transfer window on one condition.
The Danish centre-forward has been linked with a departure since the summer, having been relegated to the lower ranks of the competition under the management of Angelo Postecoglou.
Ange has favoured Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr as the starting duo in the middle of the park and although Hojbjerg is reliable, his defensive style of play is not in line with Ange’s tactics.
The 28-year-old has been linked with a number of top clubs, including Atletico Madrid, Juventus and Napoli.
A depleted Spurs squad needs reinforcements in a number of positions, including midfield. Especially as they will be without Papa Matar Sarr and Yves Bissouma in January, while Bentancur and Maddison are not expected to return until the end of next month.
A report from Football Insider claims that the club is now willing to let Hojbjerg go, but only if a replacement for him can be found first.
A number of Serie A teams are interested in the former Southampton player, but a possible move would depend on whether Spurs manage to sign a new centre-back in January.
One of the players strongly linked with Spurs is Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher, who they also wanted to sign in the summer but the Blues decided not to sell him then.
Reports have emerged claiming that they are still interested in the English centre forward and that Chelsea have put him up for sale and Spurs will make an offer for him.
