Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho covets the Tottenham job, it is claimed.
Rob Beasley, makes the revelation in his book Jose Mourinho: Up Close And Personal which was released last month.
He wrote: "Spurs had made repeated attempts to try and lure Mourinho to White Hart Lane and Jose was certainly interested.
"Timing was always the issue, though, but it wouldn't surprise me if it does happen one day.
"The thought of reawakening a once famous club like Spurs to make them champions really appealed to him.
"It's a London club and he loves London and owns a house in the capital. It would also give him the chance to embarrass his ex-Chelsea boss Roman Abramovich on his own doorstep."
