Journalist: Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg makes perfect sense for Tottenham

The Daily Star has claimed today that Tottenham Hotspur ‘have received a green light in their bid’ to sign Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg from Southampton in the summer transfer window.

The report claimed that Spurs boss Jose Mourinho is keen to bolster the midfield in the summer and has earmarked the Denmark midfielder as a potential option.

Mourinho loves holding midfielders who will sit deep and allow others to move forward. And that is why he feels Hojbjerg is the ideal man to take up the same role at Spurs.

The former Bayern Munich midfielder has refused to sign a new contract despite ongoing negotiations with Southampton.
