Sporting Lisbon's midfielder Morten Hjulmand ignores the attention of MU and Tottenham to agree to personal terms with Juventus.
Morten Hjulmand is 26 years old, joining Sporting Lisbon from Lecce in 2023 and soon became the pillar of the Portuguese team. He has 96 appearances in all competitions for the club in the last two seasons.
Last season, Hjulmand almost always appeared when Sporting won a double title in the domestic league. And yet, the Danish player is also present in the typical squad of the Portuguese league in the last 2 seasons.
It is reported that Hjulmand may have played the final match for Sporting, because MU, Tottenham and Juventus admired him. MU has tracked Hjulmand's progress for more than a year, and coach Ruben Amorim wants to reunite his former student at Old Trafford.
However, according to Corriere Dello Sport, Juventus faster in this deal. Turin team has reached an agreement on the salary that this player wants.
Hjlumand himself agreed with Juventus, and the Turin team will soon announce the deal. Hjlumand has a contract release of up to 80 million euros (£ 69 million) with Sporting Lisbon, but Juventus is said to be an agreement with a partner at £ 40 million.
Along with that, Juventus is also quickly completing the purchase of Jadon Sancho from MU. Sancho really wants to leave MU and the representative is doing every way to pave the way to Juventus. Sancho himself proposed to Juventus and expressed his desire to wear a Bianconeri shirt. The problem of Juventus is to sell another winger to get room for Sancho, and reach an agreement with MU. There is still a long way but hope is growing.
MU still keeps the view that does not sell Sancho less than £ 25 million. While Juventus's latest offer is only £ 15 million. However, the gap of 10 million pounds is not too big for the Italian team. They only need to sell Nico Gonzalez to “press the button” of Sancho.
