Report: AC Milan are ready to enter race to sign experienced Tottenham player

According to the print edition of Gazzetta dello Sport (as relayed by Sport Witness), AC Milan are ready to turn their attention to Tottenham midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg ahead of the summer.

The report says that Milan are keen to add reinforcements to their midfield when the transfer window reopens in June and have started looking around Europe for potential candidates.

It is explained that the Rossoneri want a ‘more experienced profile’ to add to their squad which is full of young talent and have thus turned their attention to the Spurs star.

AC Milan are interested in Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg

The outlet says that the 28-year-old is seen as the right profile for Stefano Pioli’s set-up, with the player expected to leave the North London club at the end of the season.

The publication points out that since Hojbjerg has only a year left on his contract, a fee of around €18m-€20m (£15.4-£17.1m) will be enough for Milan to clinch the signing.

It seems like Hojbjerg is going to be the subject of a transfer battle between a few Italian sides this summer, with Milan, Juventus and Napoli allegedly eyeing the midfielder. That is not surprising as the Dane has the attributes to be a top number six in Serie A.
