Hasenhuttl confirms Hojbjerg interest from top European clubs

After his superb form for Saints this season, it appears that Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg may be attracting interest from some of Europe’s top clubs.

Ralph Hasenhuttl stated at a Saints fans forum on Friday:

“I know that a lot of good, famous clubs in Europe have him on their list.

“We know that we have a few that are in the focus of these clubs.”

The Austrian did go on to say that he would clearly like to keep Hojbjerg at the club and build a team around him however.

If he carries on in the same way that he has so far this campaign, Saints will be able to charge a very significant fee for him too to help fight off any suitors.
