Milan keen on Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg as transfer sees as opportunity

Milan keen on Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg as transfer sees as opportunity Serie A side Milan were keen on a midfield signing in the form of Pierre Emile-Hojbjerg in the summer transfer window. A deal didn’t materialise but the possibility of a move remains alive in January. Daniele Longo has reported that the Dane is still seen as a transfer opportunity by Milan, with Ruben Amorim having shown a keenness towards signing him. The ex-Tottenham player is seen as a good fit for his system, as he offers workrate and also acts as a screen for the backline. He can also make darting runs forward and this was seen during his time in London. Milan mainly see Marseille’s difficult financial situation as something they can take advantage of. The player is valued at between €10m and €15m and this is likely to be the case even in January. The midfielder had rejected a move to Newcastle United in the summer, even if Marseille had accepted the deal. But he would be interested in a move to Milan, with other Italian clubs having pursued a move in the past. Kaustubh Pandey – GIFN
