Tottenham Hotspur new manager Jose Mourinho has revealed in his pre-match press conference that he wanted to sign Lucas Moura for Real Madrid.
The former Chelsea boss took charge of the north London club following the dismissal of Mauricio Pochettino who served the club for five and a half years.
Mourinho managed Real Madrid from 2010 until 2013, and during that time, he wanted to secure the services of Moura who at that time was playing at Sao Paulo.
The Brazilian international moved to Paris Saint-Germain and then joined Tottenham in January 2018 for a transfer fee of around £25 million.
