Newcastle United apparently takes ex-Bavaria

According to the mirror, Newcastle United is planning a 35 million euro transfer from Tottenham player and ex-Bayern professional Pierre-Emile Höjbjerg. Magpies trainer Eddie Howie is said to have identified the Danish midfielder as a transfer goal for the coming season.

According to the report, Trace coach Antonio Conte plans to restructure his squad, and Höjbjerg could be one of the players who can move on if the offer is right and the association from North London finds an adequate replacement.

According to reports, Jose Mourinho is also interested in the 26-year-old, but the Roma should have failed with an offer last summer. However, Conte recently praised Höjbjerg for his "fantastic work" in midfield and the Dane itself has so far gave no evidence of a possible farewell.

"Antonio is a special trainer with a special way of tackling things, with a very high level of performance. There is always a time of adaptation, a time of understanding the sporting side and also the personal side, and everything goes well together," said Höjbjerg.

Höjbjerg, who won the Bundesliga four times with Bayern and three times the DFB Cup, came from FC Southampton to Tottenham for around 17 million euros in August 2020. Since then he has been a regular player and this season has 31 games in the Premier League, where he scored two goals. His contract with the Spurs runs until 2025.
