Bayern Munich midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg has confirmed he will leave the club in the summer after three years at the club.
Hojbjerg, 20, was tipped as a future star when outgoing Bayern boss promoted the Denmark international into the first time in 2013 but his career has stagnated since.
The Denmark international has endured two loan spells at Augsburg last season and Schalke this time around but has been told by incoming Bayern boss Carlo Ancelotti that he does not feature in his plans and will now look for another club this summer.
“Club hunting sounds a little desperate,” Hojbjber told Danish newspaper BT, via DW Sports. “I’m going out and finding the right match, I’ll go out and find something that suits me.
“However, it is clear that it does not need to be a top club. I need to find a place where there is perspective.”
Of players to have made at least 20 appearances in the Bundesliga this season only three players required fewer minutes per interception than Hojbjerg (23.6 mins).

I wonder if he could be a good fit at Tottenham. His style of play seems like it might fit well with them, and they need depth in central midfield.
