After Ange Postecoglou’s arrival at Tottenham Hotspur in the summer, Pierre-Emile Hjbjerg was confined to a limited role.
After being a regular for the previous three years, the 28-year-old has only played 80 minutes in six league games this season.
According to Calciomercato, the midfielder is’very upset’ with his current situation at Tottenham and ‘feels betrayed’ by the club he ‘loves so much’.
As a result, the footballer is seeking for a new challenge, which could be why he just severed relations with his agent.
Atlético Madrid scouted the Denmark international during the previous transfer window and has him on their radar for January.
Diego Simeone is a fan of the Tottenham player, and according to the outlet, the La Liga club is contemplating a new winter assault.
Atlético must be mindful of the Old Lady because both their sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli, and manager, Massimiliano Allegri, admire the Dane ‘a lot’.
According to Calciomercato, Tottenham value the player at €40 million and are not interested in a loan arrangement, which appears to be the only alternative for the Serie A club at the moment.
The newest interaction between Juve and Hjbjerg’s new agency suggests that Giuntoli is’ready to seize’ a chance, provided the trade can be completed.
