Hojbjerg’s future at Tottenham is in doubt as Ange Postecoglou has not yet figured him prominently in his plans. Although he has been used as a substitute in certain situations, a lack of playing time could lead to the Dane seriously considering leaving the club.
With reported deals with Juventus and Atlético Madrid, Hojbjerg appears to have tempting options on the table. However, the financial ability of both clubs to cover Tottenham’s asking price is questionable, which could open the door to other options, such as a loan or a possible transfer to an interested club.
Ajax, known for its shrewdness in the transfer market, joins Hojbjerg’s list of suitors. Despite facing stiff competition, particularly from Juventus and Atletico Madrid, the Dutch club consider the Danish midfielder a key target. The crucial question is whether Ajax can meet Tottenham’s financial demands, a question that will only be resolved in the coming weeks.
The January market promises to be busy for Hojbjerg with several clubs showing interest in his services. As Tottenham decide on the midfielder’s future, Ajax are positioning themselves as potential contenders in this exciting race to sign a player with proven quality on the European stage.
