MIKKEL DAMSGAARD, Denmark’s breakout star at Euro 2020, has had his transfer price set by Sampdoria amid interest from some of Europe’s biggest clubs.
Tottenham, Liverpool and Barcelona and Juventus are all reportedly interested in signing the 21-year-old winger this summer.
But they will have to fork out a big transfer fee if they are to prize him away from the Serie A side.
According to La Gazetta dello Sport, Sampdoria have set Damsgaard’s price at £34million.
It comes after the Danes reached the semi-finals of Euro 2020 before being eliminated by England.
And Damsgaard was a key figure in helping them make it to the last four.
The youngster netted the opener in his country’s must-win group game against Russia which they went on to win 4-1.
He then also scored a sensational free-kick in their semi-final clash with Gareth Southgate’s men, before eventually being knocked out after extra time.
Damsgaard was given his chance in Denmark’s starting XI in tragic circumstances after Christian Eriksen collapsed in their opening match against Finland.

The Inter Milan midfielder suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch in Copenhagen but was stabilised and subsequently released from hospital.
And Damsgaard made Eriksen proud by performing superbly for the Danes, guiding them to their first semi-final in a major tournament since they won the Euros back in 1992.
Spurs are interested in bringing Damsgaard to the club as they look to add to their squad following the arrival of new manager Nuno Espirito Santo.
Liverpool are also hoping to add some fresh faces to their side after a disappointing defence of their Premier League title last season.
Meanwhile, European giants Barcelona and Juventus will be wanting to be more competitive in the Champions League in the 2021-22 campaign as neither made it past the last 16 in the previous season.
