Southampton star Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg has dropped a huge hint about his future over on Instagram.
Hojbjerg posted a picture of himself and his daughter meditating in his house with the caption of “Peace, love & good energy to the world.” This led to plenty of comments from Southampton fans on the image asking him to sign a new contract.
The midfield then proceeded to like several of these comments, including ones saying “Please sign the new contract buddy for our fans saintsfc” and “Sign the contract” – hinting at his possible intentions.
This comes amid speculation over his future at the club, with his current contract due to expire at the end of next season.
Football Insider have reported that Tottenham have made Hojbjerg a key target for the summer window as they look to take advantage of his situation.
However, Hojbjerg’s actions on social media suggest that he could have his heart set on staying at Southampton. This could be a huge boost for the Saints if he does decide to remain at St. Mary’s and sign a new deal, given that he is the club captain and a regular starter in midfield.
Him putting pen to paper on an extension could also ward off interest from Tottenham and force them to look at other targets. Hojbjerg committing himself to the Saints could send a message that he is not for sale and essentially, tell Jose Mourinho that he is not interested.
