Hojbjerg has been one of the main men in the schemes of Antonio Conte last season. He is projected to be in the starting eleven this season. Tottenham won’t let their best midfielders go away that easily. Tottenham will try to keep Hojbjerg till the end of the season.
The discussions have frozen and Atleti must make another bid to not send the transfer to the death point. Atletico Madrid played with Koke in that position and they want a typical defensive midfielder for their squad.
According to the Football Espana, Hojbjerg is already searching for a house in Madrid and that can be a good sign for Atletico. The coach of Tottenham, Ange Postecoglou has not chosen yet what to do with the midfielder. Although his qualities are quite clear for Tottenham’s boss.
The next few days will be decisive for that move with the midfielder that would be a perfect choice for the tactics of Pablo Simeone.
