According to Eurosport, Tottenham Hotspur boss still admires Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic ahead of a possible move.
It’s claimed that Spurs will listen to offers for Lucas Moura and Erik Lamela, suggesting that a new winger is wanted in North London.
Add in that Gareth Bale is only on loan for the season, and few would blame Mourinho for considering more options on the flanks.
Perisic is a name often linked with Spurs, and here we are again, with the Croatian allegedly admired by Mourinho.
Whether Spurs launch a January move remains to be seen, but he appears to be a prime target for Tottenham if they do offload a winger.
Mourinho wanted Perisic at Manchester United in 2017, but didn’t get his man, so it’s no great shock that he remains keen on him.
Perisic, 31, is back with Inter after a loan spell with Bayern Munich, where he won the Champions League, and has notched two goals in 19 games, as well as recording three assists.
Perisic isn’t really of the age that Spurs usually look for, but with Mourinho keen, a move can’t really be ruled out.
