Jose Mourinho wants Tottenham to bring in five players when the transfer window opens, reports 90mins.
When it comes to Mourinho and the transfer market you would think that he wants a bunch of world-class players based on his record, however, that is not the case this time around.
According to 90mins, Mourinho is content for any new signings to be either loan players or free agents but sadly for the Portuguese there is a mixture of good news and bad news in regards to his request.
90mins claims that the former Man Utd manager will not be getting five players, that is the bad news.
The good news is that the club regard signing three players this summer as a success.

The bottom line, if this report is accurate, is that there will be a maximum of three new players coming in, which is not at all bad when you consider the financial impact the club has suffered due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
The players that have been mentioned in the report are Philippe Coutinho, Ryan Fraser, Willian and Thiago Silva. There was a fifth one in Thomas Meunier, however, he is set to sign for Bundesliga outfit Borussia Dortmund.
Of the remaining four players on the list, the one that stands out for me is Coutinho. If Mourinho manages to bring the Brazilian on board that would be a coup.
But regardless, it does appear that there will be some incomings this summer.
