Tottenham fans react to Southampton chief’s comments on Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg

Southampton chief Martin Semmens has confirmed that if a club is willing to meet their demands for Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, they will sanction a sale.

He said recently: “Let’s be clear about Pierre, he’s been absolutely upfront with us and everybody publicly that he sees himself at the very highest level of football. He wants to win the league, he wants to win the Champions League either with us or somebody else and at some point he’s going to either have to drive us to that level or move somewhere else to do it.

“If there’s a club out there that can win the Champions League and they think Pierre can improve their team, if they can pay for him then in the end we have to let him go.
