Report: Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg to join Sevilla on loan

Bayern Munich youngster Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is reportedly poised to join Sevilla on a six-month loan deal in January.

The 19-year-old is widely regarded as one of the best young talents in European football, with a number of clubs believed to be interested in taking the teenager on loan.

However, Bayern boss Pep Guardiola feels that the midfielder's development will be best served in Spain and has identified Sevilla as the ideal club, according to Estadio Deportivo.

"Sevilla? Yes, of course. Why not? They play good football and they're in the Europa League. It's a club that we like," Hojbjerg's agent recently told reporters.

Hojbjerg joined Bayern from Brondby in 2012.
