According to the print edition of Tipsbladet (as relayed by Sport Witness), unless things change drastically over the next two months, Tottenham Hotspur will cash in on Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in January.
Hojbjerg has proven to be a valuable squad option for Ange Postecoglou this season, often coming on as a substitute to help the Lilywhites see out wins.
The 28-year-old was handed his first Premier League start of the season last week against Fulham owing to Yves Bissouma’s suspension and he delivered a solid display, demonstrating that he can be counted upon.

Hojbjerg is expected to leave Spurs in January
However, Tipsbladet have said that Hojbjerg is simply ‘too good a footballer to just be a reserve’ even for a club like Spurs, who are currently sitting at the top of the Premier League table.
The outlet adds that the Dane is ‘pointing towards a change’ in the winter if his situation at Tottenham does not change over the next two months.
The report adds that barring ‘unexpected developments’, the former Southampton man will no longer be a Spurs player in January.
However, it is said that the challenge would be to ‘find a solution in a good and constructive way’ that suits all parties, with various clubs around Europe interested in the Tottenham man.
Spurs Web Opinion
Any slim chance of Hojbjerg forcing himself into Tottenham’s starting eleven has now completely diminished following the return of Rodrigo Bentancur. So, I think the writing is on the wall for the Dane in January.
