Ryan Fraser wants to join Tottenham, but Jose Mourinho is unconvinced the winger is ready for a top six club, according to the Daily Express.

Fraser is set to be available on a free transfer in the summer, with his contract running down, and he is thought to be on Spurs’s radar.

But Mourinho reportedly has his doubts over completing a transfer for the Scottish international.

Fraser has not had his strongest season at Bournemouth this term, which seems to have left Mourinho questioning whether signing the rapid wide-man would be a smart decision.

Crystal Palace are now hoping to beat Tottenham to the punch and land Fraser quickly.

Palace do feel that Fraser could be a valuable addition to their squad, as his pace and directness could make them a more dangerous threat.

Fraser may find that he plays more regularly at Palace than at Tottenham, but the chance to test himself in Mourinho’s side is obviously appealing to the Bournemouth man.
