‘Dreams of trophies’ – Agent confirms many clubs want to sign Tottenham player this summer
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s agent has confirmed the midfielder has received plenty of proposals from clubs around Europe, with a transfer away from Tottenham expected to be on the cards this summer.
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is in the last year of his Spurs contract
Hojbjerg, who has just one year left on his deal at Spurs, is expected to head out of the exit door this summer as Ange Postecoglou looks to rebuild the Spurs squad ahead of the 2024-25 campaign.
According to The Daily Star (via Football.London), the Tottenham boss has given the Dane the greenlight to find a new club, with the North London side thought to be listening to proposals for the 28-year-old.
The Denmark international, who is currently at the Euros, is said to be on the radars of Atletico Madrid, Fenerbahce, Napoli and Juventus.
Hojbjerg’s agent Luca Puccinelli has now suggested that his client wants to join a big club where he can compete for silverware next season.
When asked about a transfer away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for the midfielder, he said (via Fabrizio Romano): “A player like him will surely be part of a club with great ambition or project because he is not just a strong player but with a character made to fight for important things every year.
“Pierre feels comfortable in the pressure to win and I am working in this sense. He is telling me that every year he dreams of trophies at the end of the season and doesn’t like to play for nothing. This is his mindset, this is the mission.”
Hojbjerg is expected to leave Tottenham this summer
Puccinelli also confirmed that plenty of clubs around the continent have already got in touch over a deal for Hojbjerg but insisted that the player will only study the proposals after the Euros.
He added: “I am working on the many requests that we have already received, yes; but we will analyse all the possibilities after the Euros, during the holidays when we will spend some time together and then look forward to the next chapter. The national team is giving him back his lost serenity now. I’m 100% sure that whoever signs Hojbjerg will do a bargain.”

Given the difficult group Denmark find themselves in, it is quite possible that they would exit the Euros in the group stages, which means that Hojbjerg’s move away from Tottenham is likely to be finalised within a matter of weeks.
Hojbjerg made the Tottenham starting eleven on just eight occasions in the Premier League last season and was brought off the bench 28 times having fallen behind the likes of Pape Matar Sarr, Yves Bissouma and Rodrigo Bentancur in the midfield pecking order (transfermarkt).
