I’m not saying the valuation is 100% accurate, but for Sporting’s captain and a Danish international who’s in good form, €40M isn’t an unreasonable price, I think he’s worth it. Overall, there’s definitely a bit of a double standard when it comes to how we value players.
Hjulmand is a good player, but where is he going to play? Tudor uses a two-man midfield, and I think Thuram and Locatelli are locked in as starters. If he doesn’t have a clear spot in the starting XI, it could turn into another Douglas situation.
