The player ‘feels betrayed’ by Tottenham, wants to leave – ‘Very disappointed’ by Postecoglou’s decision – Sport Witness
Pierre-Emile Højbjerg has been reduced to a limited role at Tottenham Hotspur after Ange Postecoglou joined the club this summer.After being a starter for the last three years, the 28-year-old has been limited to 80 minutes of action in six league games this season.According to Calciomercato, the midfielder is “very disappointed” with his current situation at Tottenham, and in a way feels “betrayed” by the club he “loves so much”.
The player is therefore looking for a new challenge and this could be the reason why he recently separated from his agent.Atlético Madrid have recently been keeping tabs on the Danish international and continue to have him on their agenda for January. Diego Simeone is an admirer of the Tottenham man and the club say La Liga are planning a new attack in the winter transfer window.Atlético must be wary of the Old Lady as both the sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli, and the coach, Massimiliano Allegri, like the Dane “very much”.
Calciomercato claims that Tottenham value the player at €40m and are not open to a loan, which appears to be the only option for the Serie A side at the moment.The latest contact between Juve and Højbjerg’s new agent makes it clear that Giuntoli is ‘ready to seize an opportunity’, as long as there is a possibility of completing the deal.
