Club sources’strongly deny’ they will sign a Tottenham player and are abandoning a January deal.
In the January transfer window, sources at Juventus’strongly reject’ that they will make a significant offer for Tottenham midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.
Tuttomercatoweb claims that the Italian team is reconsidering the idea of signing the Dane as a substitute for Paul Pogba.
After a failed drug test, Pogba is likely to get a lengthy suspension from sport, presenting Juventus with a dilemma in the middle of the field.
TMW state that the goal is to locate a player who can serve as a “buffer solution” until the end of the current campaign.
The ideal candidate would have a profile like Hojbjerg’s, which is why there have been persistent rumors regarding a January transfer for the Tottenham player, but “sources within the club strongly deny” that he might be acquired.
They might just be keeping their cards close to their chest while they wait to see what happens with Pogba.
If he is suspended, his contract will end, which will make money available for a move that otherwise wouldn’t have been possible.
Hojbjerg’s transfer may then be considered, but right now, the general consensus is that the Tottenham player is not a target.
