Jose Mourinho 'rejects chance for Tottenham to re-sign Christian Eriksen'

Mourinho 'rejects chance to re-sign Eriksen'

Jose Mourinho has reportedly turned down the opportunity to bring Christian Eriksen back to Tottenham Hotspur.

The Danish playmaker left Spurs for Inter Milan last January but has fallen out of favour with head coach Antonio Conte, making just four starts across all competitions so far this season.

The 28-year-old was disappointing last term, scoring just one Serie A goal in 17 appearances, and he looks set to leave after just 12 months in Italy.

However, Mourinho isn't interested in bringing the Dane back to North London, according to Football Insider.

The 57-year-old believes his side have plenty of options in Eriksen's favoured attacking midfield position and does not feel the player is a necessary addition.
