Tottenham Hotspur will not entertain any loan offers for Danish midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the January transfer window.
Tottenham were demanding a fee of around £30 million for Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the summer transfer window, and a transfer did not materialise. The Dane has been linked with a loan exit ahead of the January transfer window. But a report from Fichajes has claimed that Spurs are unwilling to let him leave on loan midway through the season.
It seems that the Denmark international will now have to wait until the summer transfer window before leaving the club. The 28-year-old has struggled for regular game time at Tottenham this season, and it will be interesting to see if he can force his way into the starting lineup in the coming weeks.
He was a key player for Tottenham last season but he seems to have fallen down the pecking order this year since the arrival of the new manager. Ange Postecoglou clearly does not fancy him as a key starter. The Dane needs to play more often at this stage of his career, and Tottenham must look to provide him with more game time to keep him at the club. It is hardly a surprise that Tottenham are unwilling to let the player leave midway through the season.
They are already lacking in depth when it comes to the midfield department. Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr have been regular starters this season but will depart for the Africa Cup of Nations in a month. Rodrigo Bentancur returned from a long-term injury only to be sidelined for a few more weeks.
Tottenham cannot afford to weaken their squad right now, and keeping the Danish international at the club until the summer transfer window should be a wise decision. They will be hoping to secure Champions League qualification at the end of the season, and they need a deeper squad to sustain their current run of form and finish the season strongly.
The decision from Tottenham will certainly come as a blow to suitors like Juventus, Ajax, and Atletico Madrid, who were hoping to sign him. It will be interesting to see if his suitors decide to test Tottenham’s resolve with a permanent transfer offer in January now.
