Danish midfielder Pierre-Emile Højbjerg is set to join Olympique Marseille from Tottenham Hotspur. The documents for the transfer are in the final stages of being signed.

Tottenham Hotspur will receive a fee around €13.5 to €14 million for the transfer. Højbjerg had not intended to sign a new deal with Spurs, making this move a strategic decision for both the player and the club. The financial agreement between the two clubs reflects Højbjerg’s value and his contributions to Tottenham during his time there.

One of the pivotal moments in this transfer was Højbjerg’s conversation with Roberto De Zerbi, the current head coach of Olympique Marseille. After speaking with De Zerbi, Højbjerg accepted the move, excited about the new opportunities and challenges that await him in the French Ligue 1.
