Sporting make call on Hjulmand's January exit | OneFootball

Morten Hjulmand will not leave in January. Sporting refuses to let go of their captain midway through the season and, despite strong interest from abroad, Frederico Varandas denies negotiating with any of the clubs monitoring the ‘number 42’.

According to information reported by the newspaper Record, Manchester United and City are set to make a move for Hjulmand in the upcoming winter transfer window. In England, it is claimed that Tottenham and Juventus will also try to negotiate with Sporting, but the decision has already been made.

Hjulmand is untouchable until June and, at the end of the season, the future of the Danish international will be decided. Frederico Varandas even publicly revealed that the player refused to leave in the summer, even when his salary would have been tripled.

The same source also adds that the only possibility for Sporting to accept selling Morten Hjulmand in January would be if the club is eliminated from all competitions they are participating in – the National Championship, Portuguese Cup, Champions League, and League Cup.

This season, wearing the Sporting shirt, Morten Hjulmand – valued at 50 million euros – has played in 12 matches. The captain of the green and whites started every game played by the Lions, scoring one goal in 1,090 minutes of play.
