Italian passion for Højbjerg puts pressure on OM's budget

Courted in Italy, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg is among the priority targets of OM's winter transfer window, with Juventus and Fiorentina also in the mix.

Genesio's side must, for its part, make sales this winter to meet the club's financial commitments.

The Højbjerg case remains very current in the Marseille transfer market.

According to Fiorentina, they want to step up to recruit the Danish midfielder.

The Viola will, however, have to contend with a heavyweight rival: JUVENTUS Turin.

The Old Lady particularly values the profile of the Danish international, notably his experience, leadership and balance in the midfield.

Such interest would not leave the player indifferent.

A departure for 15 M€ is being considered by OM.

This Italian offensive represents an interesting financial opportunity for Marseille.

Under contract with OM until June 2028, PIERRE-EMILE HØJBJERG could be valued at around 15 M€.

Marseille finances and outlook

Such an amount would allow the Phocaean club to raise cash while potentially easing its wage bill.

OM's financial context could, moreover, weigh in the balance.

The Danish player is among those who could bring in a significant fee.

The final stance of the Olympian executives and especially that of the player remains to be known.

One thing is certain: the January transfer window could hold a particularly lively Højbjerg case for Marseille.
