Tottenham are edging closer to a deal to sign Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg from Southampton.

Spurs are said to have offered £15m for the Denmark midfielder in negotiations so far.

The Saints value Hojbjerg at £25m but Spurs are also discussing a permanent deal for right-back Kyle Walker-Peters to move the other way.

Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl previously said Hojbjerg will only be sold if a deal is a 'win-win situation'

Walker-Peters has been on loan on the south coast and Southampton are interested in buying him but believe the price has to be right.

Sky Sports News has been told Southampton have also been alerted to the potential availability of West Ham right-back Ryan Fredericks.

Everton are also interested in Hojbjerg and are said to have offered a deal rising to £19m so far, but Sky Sports News has been told Hojbjerg wants to join Tottenham.

Sky Sports News reported earlier this month that both Spurs and Everton had opened talks over Hojbjerg, and that the former wanted to include Walker-Peters in the deal.
