After completing his move, Hojbjerg told Tottenham’s official website: ‘What was very important to me is I wanted to play in a club where I could see myself for many years.

Tottenham was the one. I’m very proud, very happy, excited. ‘I think there’s a fantastic future ahead for the Club and I wanted so much to be a part of that.’ Hojbjerg will wear the No 5 shirt vacated by Jan Vertonghen who left the club at the end of the season.
