Romano wrote on X: “Pierre-Emile Højbjerg to Olympique Marseille, here we go!

“Documents set to be signed for Danish midfielder who’s joining from Spurs.

With Hojbjerg being in the last year of his contract, it was inevitable that he was going to leave this summer after a lack of regular first-team football last season.

Marseille have had something of a bargain with a fee in the region of £11.3m – £11.7m considering Hojbjerg is still only 28 and showed with Denmark at Euro 2024.

He showed, especially against England, that he is a top player and if he had a longer contract, Spurs could have commanded a much higher fee.
