Southampton on brink of landing Bayern Munich midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg

Bayern Munich midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is on his way to England.

Bayern accepted the Dane's transfer request last month.

Kicker says Southampton are set to land Hojbjerg.

The Danish midfielder spent last year on loan at Schalke and has decided he must leave Bayern this summer, to advance his career.

The 20-year-old - a big favourite of Pep Guardiola at the Allianz Arena - will arrive for around £11million.
