Morten Hjurmand has been linked with a move from Sporting CP at the end of the season, with a possible move to either Manchester United or Arsenal.
The two Premier League clubs are in a good position to secure his signature and it will be interesting to see where the Denmark international ends up. The 26-year-old is a key player in the Portugal national team and could be a great signing for the two English clubs.
Manchester United need more control and defensive cover in the center of the park, especially after Casemiro’s departure. The 26-year-old Denmark international has the experience and leadership qualities to help the team grow.
The opportunity to play for Manchester United will be exciting for him. According to a report from SportWitness, he could be signed this summer for a fee of £34 million. The deal could be a bargain if Manchester United can get a deal done.
The player has reached the peak of his powers and now is the perfect time to step up and move to a bigger club.
Meanwhile, Arsenal are also interested in the player. They need a quality player to replace Christian Norgaard. He is struggling to get opportunities at London clubs and they need someone they can trust. Jourmand could be an upgrade on the former Brentford midfielder.
Yulmand has been an Arsenal fan since he was a boy and even has a tattoo of the north London club. It would be reasonable to think that they may have an advantage in the race to sign the player.
Both clubs can afford to pay his asking price of £34m, and it remains to be seen what he ends up doing.
