Spanish giants eyeing star transfer from Tottenham
By Manuel Meza
The 2024 summer transfer window is set to be a crucial period for top football teams worldwide. Tottenham Hotspur, in particular, is eager to improve its Premier League standings through strategic moves. The London club is not only looking to bolster its squad but also to finalize some key sales.
Determined to enhance its midfield, Atletico Madrid has set its sights on Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, a player they previously showed interest in. The Danish midfielder might be available for transfer due to his secondary role at Tottenham and his contractual situation.
Looking ahead to the next season, Atletico Madrid is once again in the market for a defensive midfielder. Matts Wieffer from Feyenoord, aged 24, is a strong candidate. However, as reported by AS (h/t Fichajes.com), numerous clubs are interested in the Dutch player, making his acquisition challenging.
Aware of these difficulties, Atletico Madrid is considering revisiting its interest in Hojbjerg. The Copenhagen-born player was a target in previous transfer windows, but a deal could not be finalized. Now, with his reduced role at Tottenham—only starting eight times in the Premier League this season—and his contract expiring in 2025, the Spurs might be open to selling him this summer. Consequently, Atletico Madrid is contemplating a renewed effort to secure his services.

This summer is shaping up to be a game-changer for Tottenham, with a mix of exciting new talent and smart sales to boost the squad.
