This is one of the priority issues for Atlético Madrid in these last hours of the transfer window. Eager to strengthen their midfield with an experienced sentry, the Colchoneros had checked the name of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg for several weeks. And while it looked like the Madrid leaders had been accelerating on the trail leading to the Danish player in recent days, that trail is believed to be abandoned at the moment.
Indeed, according to Report, the former Bayern Munich should not join the Iberian capital by the end of the transfer window. According to our Spanish colleagues, Atlético is no longer in the running to recruit Hojbjerg. A hard blow for Diego Simeone and the Madrid board who will have to quickly find a spare wheel.
