Mourinho requests Real Madrid’s acquisition of Morten Hjulmand -report
According to COPE.
Soon-to-be Real Madrid coach José Mourinho has requested the signing of Sporting Lisbon midfielder Morten Hjulmand, according to a report from COPE’s Miguel Ángel Díaz. The Danish midfielder could leave his club for a fee of around €50 million, per that same report. Hjulmand will turn 27 years old this summer, so his signing wouldn’t fit the transfer policy Real Madrid have implement over the last few years.
Still, he’s a defensive midfielder with a solid ability to distribute the ball, something Mourinho would like to address in the upcoming transfer window, according to several reports published in the Spanish press. Real Madrid will likely sign a pure midfielder this summer, with other players like Manchester City’s Rodri Hernández reportedly on the club’s radar.
