Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is playing well for Southampton.
The Southampton legend, though, has admitted that the 23-year-old midfielder could attract the attention of bigger clubs in the summer of 2020 should he have yet another fantastic season at St. Mary’s Stadium.
Le Tissier said about Hojbjerg on Gillette Soccer Saturday show on Sky Sports Premier League this past Saturday afternoon (12:18pm, April 6, 2019): “His performances have been exceptional, and that’s the way of football.
“I don’t think he will go this summer, but I think if he has another fantastic season, he comes on again as he has done this season, then obviously there will be people taking a look at him.”
