Jose Mourinho 'wants to bring Christian Eriksen back to Tottenham on loan this month'... but Inter flop's £6.6m-per-year salary could scupper sensational return

Jose Mourinho is interested in bringing Christian Eriksen back to Tottenham amid reports that the Inter flop could return to north London in a loan switch this month.

The Danish midfielder, 28, left the Premier League club in a cut-price £25m move to the Italian capital last January, with Spurs keen to grab a fee for a player destined to leave for free the following summer.

However the playmaker has soon fallen out of favour under Antonio Conte, scoring four goals and creating just four goals in his 40 appearances for Serie A title challengers.
