Never before have I heard as many players come out in interviews and state that the coach and his winning mentality was the draw in signing for Spurs. Gareth Bale while still at Real Madrid said it was a huge statement of Spurs ambition in employing Jose Mourinho describing him as world class and a serial winner.
Hojbjerg turned other clubs away after Jose told him he wanted him, now the same thing looks like happening with Vinicióus being offered better deals elsewhere but insisting he wants to come to Spurs.

When the fans were being sold the stadium redevelopment dream, one emphasis was that the allure of this exciting project was the pull that Tottenham would have. Pochettino delivered Champions League football, yet players wanted to leave, not join! The Mourinho effect proves that the Portuguese is the real deal. Just ask the boys and girls in the production suite at Amazon Prime.
José must win silverware, we know that, anything less is losing, and nobody wants a repeat of that that tiresome sketch, thanks, very much.
This Portuguese pundit went as far to call the deal that brings Vinícius to Tottenham bad, disastrous business for Benfica. Spurs will pay just £2.73M and will have a non-obligatory buying option-to-get him for £38M.
Mourinho opens doors.
