The Olympique de Marseille may soon face another departure from its ranks. Following the potential exit of Mason Greenwood, the AC Milan is reportedly eyeing a key player from the French club: Danish midfielder Pierre-Emile Højbjerg. The Rossoneri see the 30-year-old as a valuable asset, while the Olympique de Marseille continues to work on reducing its payroll and securing fresh funds.
Højbjerg’s future in the balance
The transfer is still in the early stages, with AC Milan planning to assess their squad during pre-season before finalizing any moves. If a departure occurs in the midfield, Højbjerg could quickly become a priority target. Despite having three years left on his contract with Marseille, the club is open to discussions, with an estimated fee of around €10 million—considered reasonable for a player of his profile and salary.
The Danish international has long expressed interest in playing in Italy, where multiple clubs have been monitoring his situation for weeks. His potential move could also reunite him with former teammate Adrien Rabiot, with whom he formed a strong partnership during their time at Marseille.
Impact on marseille and milan
Last season, Højbjerg delivered solid performances in Ligue 1, contributing four goals and five assists in 32 matches. His leadership and competitive edge would be a significant boost for AC Milan. For Marseille, his departure would be a financial gain but also a major sporting setback, following Greenwood’s potential exit.
