Atlético de Madrid is looking for a defensive midfielder this summer while the Colchoneros let Geoffrey Kondogbia slip away from Olympique de Marseille a little earlier during this summer transfer window. The leaders of the club from the Spanish capital have also set their sights on Pierre-Emile Højbjerg for several weeks now. And the negotiations between the Iberian club and the Danish player have progressed well, as confirmed by our colleagues from Report.
Indeed, Atlético and Pierre-Emile Højbjerg have already had the opportunity to discuss in the past and an agreement has even been reached between the two parties, according to the latest information from the Spanish media. If the Danish midfielder wants to join the residents of the Metropolitano, who offer him the possibility of playing in the Champions League, the Colchoneros will still have to find an agreement on the price of the transfer of the Spurs player, who has been one of the only performing midfielders this season with Tottenham.
