Tottenham set to edge out Everton in the pursuit of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg

The 24-year-old Southampton midfielder is expected to move on after refusing to extend his deal. He has just one year left on his current contract with the Saints.

Hojbjerg is a man in demand this summer and Everton and Spurs have already made offers for him.

As per the Telegraph, Arsenal are keen on the player as well. However, Spurs are his most likely destination.

It will be interesting to see if Jose Mourinho’s side can wrap up the transfer quickly. The report claims that Everton have not conceded defeat in the chase yet.
