Just a few days after his twin brother Oscar signed for Eintracht Frankfurt, Emil Højlund appears to also be headed to German football. Emil was recently linked with a move to German Champions' League representatives VfB Stuttgart, but has evidently opted for the German second division instead. Sky Germany reports that die Königsblauen have lured the 19-year-old to Gelsenkirchen with the promise of more playing time.
The other young twin brother of Danish national team striker Rasmus operates as a center forward as well. Sky reports that Schalke will pay FC Copenhagen approximately €300,000 to acquire the youngster. Emil's new contract with the 2. Bundesliga club will run through 2028. Italian transfer guru Fabrizio Romano currently confirms these details.
