FOUR Premier League clubs are interested in signing Sampdoria star Mikkel Damsgaard, according to reports.
The 21-year-old shot to fame at Euro 2020, scoring a memorable free-kick for Denmark in their semi-final defeat to England.
According to Sportmediaset, English sides Liverpool, Tottenham, Leeds and Aston Villa are all keen on signing Damsgaard.
It's thought Sampdoria will accept an offer of €35million, around £30m, for the Danish winger.
Rumours suggest the Italian giants are willing to cash in on Damsgaard after his stellar summer and enhance their transfer budget.
Sampdoria signed the player from Danish side Nordsjaelland in July 2020 for a reported €6.7m, around £5.7m, on a four-year contract.
Damsgaard made a bright start to his professional career, scoring 13 goals in 84 league games for Nordsjaelland before departing.
The eight-cap international had a steady first season in Italy, making 35 Serie A appearances but scoring just twice.
Damsgaard was sensational at this summer's delayed Euros, scoring his first international goal in Denmark's emphatic 4-1 win against Russia.
He then shocked England by scoring a fabulous free-kick at Wembley, becoming the first player to beat Jordan Pickford at the tournament.
