Southampton have completed the signing of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.

The Danish midfielder has joined the Saints from Bayern Munich on a five-year deal for an undisclosed fee, believed to be in the region of £12million.

Hojbjerg, who has already been capped 17 times by Denmark, was thrilled to have made his way to the Premier League where he feels he will fit right in on the south coast.

"I'm very pleased, it's a big opportunity for me," he told the club's official website.

"I look forward to giving what I have and what I can to the club. They have put trust in me and I want to show them that they are not wrong.

"When I heard that Southampton came in for me, I said to my people that this is what I want to do, because I can see myself at Southampton, as it's the way I like to think, the way I like to play and it fits me really well.

"I hope I can come here also and be a part of the Southampton family and give what I have to fight for the club and fight for my teammates."
