Jose Mourinho wants to sign Nemanja Matic, Ruben Dias and Bruno Fernandes
Jose Mourinho has shared his three main transfer targets to Daniel Levy, according to the Independent (h/t Express).
The report claims that Mourinho is hopeful of strengthening Tottenham in the winter window.
The three players that the new boss wants are Nemanja Matic, Ruben Dias and Bruno Fernandes (h/t Express).
Mourinho knows Matic from their time at Chelsea and Manchester United. The Serbian midfielder is set to leave the Red Devils (h/t Express) and it will be interesting to see if the manager can nab him from his ex-club.
Portuguese stars to save Tottenham’s season?
Tottenham have struggled this season for consistency. We lie 14th in the Premier League and need a string of wins to close the gap on the top four.
Fernandes has been linked with a move to the Premier League too (h/t Express) and has been in fine form this season.
The 25-year-old has eight goals this season and could provide more attacking quality to the midfield.
The report claims that Fernandes could replace Christian Eriksen, who is a free agent at the end of the season.
Dias is an interesting name, given that he is one of the brightest defenders in Portugal. The 22-year-old has forced his way into the national team and could be a long-term replacement for Jan Vertonghen or Toby Alderweireld (h/t Express).
Tottenham didn’t spend a lot during the winter windows under former manager Mauricio Pochettino.
