<\/p>\n
TOTTENHAM are willing to let Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg depart the club this winter – providing two key conditions are met. Firstly, Spurs desire a credible fee having previously requested in excess of \u00a335million for the out-of-favour Dane, while they also want a replacement through the door first.<\/p>\n
That’s because Ange Postecoglou is due to lose both Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr to the Africa Cup of Nations in January meaning his midfield options will be seriously depleted.<\/p>\n
The Mali and Senegal internationals will miss a minimum of two Premier League matches – while they could miss up to four if their respective nations go the distance.<\/p>\n
It means Hojbjerg will technically move up the pecking order, although Rodrigo Bentancur is also stepping up his fitness ahead of his long-awaited return from knee surgery.<\/p>\n
Atletico Madrid and Fulham both made moves for Hojbjerg on deadline day but neither club was able to agree a transfer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Denmark international was thought to be keen on joining Atletico Madrid but they did not match Spurs’ asking price. Meanwhile, Fulham were of little interest to the former Southampton skipper.<\/p>\n
Juventus are firm admirers of Hojbjerg and are expected to test the waters this January due to Paul Pogba and Nicolo Fagioli’s respective bans.<\/p>\n
Hojbjerg wants to play regularly ahead of Euro 2024 and for that reason, he will consider any offers that land on the table this winter.<\/p>\n
He has recently split with super-agent Pini Zahavi, however, meaning he will assign new agents to resolve his future.<\/p>\n
