Jose Mourinho says that he loves watching Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son play together, in an interview conducted with The Sun.

Mourinho parted company with Tottenham back in April, with Spurs still looking for a new boss.

The Portuguese boss has generally been quiet in the media since his departure from Tottenham.

However, he was asked about Kane last night – and he suggested that he loved managing the England captain.

Mourinho also enthused over Son, with the former Spurs boss claiming that he felt the pair linked well together.

“I did enjoy it very much. I love his partnership with Son,” Mourinho said.

No shock

It is no wonder that Mourinho loved Kane’s and Son’s partnership so much.

The pair both broke into double figures for goals and assists for Tottenham this season – a feat only six other players in Europe’s top divisions achieved.

If Kane and Son hadn’t been so potent, Mourinho may have lost his job a long time before he actually did at Tottenham.

While Kane scooped up all of Tottenham’s Player of the Season awards, Son wasn’t too far behind him.

And Spurs fans will be desperately hoping that they get to see the pair linking up again next season, amid speculation over Kane’s future.
