Eberechi Eze to Tottenham Hotspur 'under threat by Jose Mourinho arrival'

Eberechi Eze's hopes of earning a move to Tottenham Hotspur could reportedly be scuppered by the arrival of Jose Mourinho as head coach.

The 21-year-old, who joined QPR from Millwall in 2016, is believed to be a transfer target for a number of Premier League clubs having impressed for the R's over the last 18 months.

Spurs were thought to be lining up a January move for the attacker with Mauricio Pochettino an admirer.

However, according to The Sun, Eze's potential switch to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is under threat following the arrival of Mourinho, who is not immediately planning for new signings.

The report adds that Chelsea, Leicester City and West Ham United are all still monitoring the England Under-21 international ahead of a potential mid-season swoop.

Eze scored his seventh Championship goal of the season in QPR's 1-1 draw with Derby County on Saturday.
