De Zerbi Confident Hojbjerg Will Remain at Marseille

Transfer Speculations Surrounding Hojbjerg

Olympique Marseille manager Roberto de Zerbi is optimistic that Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg will not leave during the upcoming January transfer window. The Denmark international has been the subject of interest from Juventus as the winter market approaches.

De Zerbi’s Faith in Hojbjerg

De Zerbi spoke to Sportitalia, expressing his belief in Hojbjerg’s commitment: “He’s a loyal supporter of mine. As vice-captain, he possesses strong personality and charisma. I don’t foresee him making a move.”

Context of Marseille’s Transfer Activity

Earlier in the summer, OM parted ways with Adrien Rabiot, who transferred to AC Milan in the closing days of the transfer window. De Zerbi praised Hojbjerg, stating: “He’s a champion, a remarkable individual, and an exemplary professional.”

He also addressed a prior incident involving teammate Jonathan Rowe, remarking, “There was an issue related to rules, which escalated. As a player, Hojbjerg is hard to replace.”
