Tottenham manager Mourinho targeting Champions League return

Tottenham Hotspur boss Jose Mourinho has eyes on a Champions League return in the future.

Spurs managed to seal a place in the Europa League after leap frogging Wolves into sixth place in the table.

It means they will be in Europe next term, and Mourinho celebrated the outcome with his coaches at the final whistle after a 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace.

But the Portuguese wants to go a step further next term.

“What we can do of course is improve,” he told reporters.

“When all the players are available we showed in this last period where we belong. I don’t know, maybe in this period, after lockdown, we finished third or fourth in the table.

“So that’s where we belong. I want to have my team, my players, not a medical room full of players. I want a pitch full of players.

“Of course as a squad, the main thing is to keep our very good players and after that improve the squad.

“Are we going to buy 10 players? No. Are we going to buy players for £100m? No. We are going to improve.

“I enjoy working with Steve (Hitchen – Spurs’ chief scout) in this organisation. We are very connected with (chairman) Mr (Daniel) Levy and the board and we’re going to do what is possible to do and hopefully next season we can give it to the fans a very good season.”
