Despite the flattery, Hjulmand is determined to keep his professional focus on the immediate task at hand. Sporting are preparing for their final competitive fixture, facing Torreense on Sunday in the Taca de Portugal final, and the midfielder has insisted that no definitive decisions regarding a transfer will be made or announced until the season has officially concluded.
The captain stressed the importance of silverware over personal transfer talk, saying: "I don't think this is the right time to talk about my future. The focus has to be on Sporting and tomorrow's game, especially since we haven't won any trophies this season yet, and that's the most important thing. I'll talk about my future after the last game of the season."
