Tottenham Hotspur star Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg ties up with USG Italy
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s future at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is under scrutiny as the midfielder finds himself sidelined amidst Ange Postecoglou’s rising influence in North London. Despite being a key figure in previous seasons, the 28-year-old has seen limited playing time this campaign, with just six Premier League starts to his name.
Speculation surrounding Hojbjerg’s departure has swirled for consecutive transfer windows, with rumours failing to materialize into concrete moves. Atletico Madrid were among the clubs reportedly interested in securing his services last summer, but a move failed to materialize.
It’s become evident that the former Southampton midfielder doesn’t quite align with the high-intensity, slick-passing style implemented by Australian manager Postecoglou. While Hojbjerg’s contract with Spurs runs until the summer of 2025, club officials are reportedly resigned to the idea that he may not remain beyond this summer.
Steps leading to a Tottenham exit?
Hojbjerg has taken a significant step towards securing a move away from North London by changing his representation ahead of the summer transfer window. According to Fabrizio Romano via X, the 28-year-old midfielder has switched agents and will now be represented by Luca Puccinelli from USG Italy, signalling his intent to explore opportunities beyond Tottenham Hotspur.
The decision to change agents serves as further evidence of Hojbjerg’s desire to seek new challenges and potentially depart from Spurs. With his contract running until 2025, the Danish midfielder is keen to explore his options and find a club where he can secure regular playing time and align with his career ambitions.
Hojbjerg’s move to USG Italy suggests a strategic approach to facilitating his transfer process, with Puccinelli likely to leverage his expertise and connections in the football industry to identify suitable opportunities for his client. As the summer window approaches, Hojbjerg will be eager to secure a move that offers him a fresh start and the chance to flourish in a new environment.
According to a report in the Italian media by TuttoMercatoItaly, Atletico Madrid could ‘still be working on his signing’ and the Spanish giants are ‘studying his situation for now.’ Daniel Levy & Co. has put an estimated valuation of £15-20 million on Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg which is cheap given the abundance of experience in his forte. While Postecoglou will look to recycle that money to institute a new face in midfield.

Hojbjerg’s tenure at Tottenham Hotspur appears to be reaching its conclusion, marking the end of an era for the Danish midfielder at the North London club. While Hojbjerg has been a loyal and dedicated servant to Spurs, the time has come for both parties to part ways in pursuit of new opportunities.
