Future looks bright for Morten Hjulmand as he continues to shine at Sporting, despite ongoing rumors linking him with a move to Manchester United. The 24-year-old midfielder has quickly made a name for himself in Portugal, impressing with his performances for the Primeira Liga side.
Since joining Sporting from Serie A club Lecce last August, Hjulmand has established himself as a key player in Ruben Amorim’s squad. While primarily a defensive-minded midfielder, he has also contributed offensively, tallying three goals and two assists this season.
The Danish international’s impressive displays have not gone unnoticed, with Manchester United reportedly showing interest in acquiring his services. However, Hjulmand has made it clear that he is happy at Sporting and has no immediate plans to leave the club.
Speaking to Portuguese publication Betano, Hjulmand expressed his contentment with life at Sporting, stating, “Estadio Jose Alvalade is a very special place to play. I feel at home.” He also emphasized his awareness of Sporting’s significance in Portugal and Europe, highlighting the club’s history in top continental competitions.
Reflecting on his decision to join Sporting, Hjulmand affirmed that it was the right move for him. His current contract with the club runs until 2028, showing Sporting’s commitment to retaining his services for the long term.
To further solidify his future at the club, Sporting is reportedly considering offering Hjulmand an improved salary and a potential role in the team’s captaincy group. This gesture aims to demonstrate the club’s appreciation for his contributions and to secure his loyalty amidst transfer speculations.
Despite the interest from Manchester United and other top clubs like Barcelona, Hjulmand remains focused on his current objectives at Sporting. With Sporting sitting at the top of the Primeira Liga table and only eight games left in the season, he is determined to maintain his high level of performance and help his team achieve their goals.
Furthermore, with the upcoming European Championships on the horizon, Hjulmand is expected to be a key member of the Denmark national team. His impressive form at Sporting has likely caught the eye of national team coach Kasper Hjulmand, who will be counting on him to make an impact in the tournament.
In the aggregate, Morten Hjulmand’s future at Sporting appears bright as he continues to excel on the pitch. While transfer rumors swirl around him, the midfielder remains committed to his current club and is eager to contribute to their success both domestically and internationally.
