There are reports Premier League club Tottenham have contacted Jose Mourinho about the possibility of succeeding Mauricio Pochettino.

Pochettino’s future in London is up in the air following Tottenham’s poor start to the season, highlighted by a humiliating 7-2 Champions League loss to Bayern Munich.

The Argentine has endured a rocky period of form at Spurs and could be on his way out of North London.

French outlet Soccerlink claim Tottenham have made initial contact with Mourinho amid the speculation surrounding Pochettino – with the Portuguese having been out of work since being sacked by Woodward himself last December.

While Pochettino is not facing the sack, Spurs have sounded out Mourinho about whether the former Chelsea and Manchester United boss would be interested.
