Former Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho may want a reunion with a former player.

The current Roma coach wants to sign Spurs veteran Eric Dier in January or the summer.

Dier is no longer in favor at Spurs, given the preferences of manager Ange Postecoglou.

Per Tuttosport, Mourinho may be ready to offer him a lifeline away from North London.

Dier played immensely for Spurs under Mourinho, playing 57 games between 2019 and 2021.

Roma are struggling this season, especially in defense, and are tenth in Serie A.

Dier may be one who Mourinho sees as experienced enough to slot right into his team.
