This season is Mourinho's first full Premier League season in charge of Tottenham. The club has given the Portuguese coach enough support in the summer window to carry out signings and reinforcements in multiple positions. Full-backs, defensive midfielders, Kane's forward substitute players, etc. Levi used his own way to introduce suitable candidates for Mourinho, completing several cost-effective transfer transactions.
In the central defender position, Mourinho failed to introduce the number one goal, namely Inter Milan’s Skriniar, Chelsea’s Rudiger, and finally introduced 23-year-old Welsh centre-back Joe Rodden from Swansea. This new season The new aid got a chance to come off the bench in the league. Although Joe Rodden has good potential, Mourinho believes that the players are insufficient in combat and hope to introduce a strong central defender. According to the local newspaper "La Nazione" in Florence, Mourinho took a fancy to AC Milan's favorite central defender, Milenkovic.
The Portuguese coach admires Milenkovic very much. This Serbian iron defender is calm in the defense and is full of general demeanor. Mourinho believes that the introduction of Milenkovic can greatly enhance the team's defense strength and make the team more stable. Milenkovic was very close to AC Milan this summer, but he failed to make it and stayed in Florence.
, a 1.95-meter-high central defender in the first 6 league games of the new season, started each game, played 90 minutes, and scored 1 goal and 1 assist. Milenkovic is the absolute core of Viola’s defense. The current contract between the player and the team will expire in 2022. Although the club's top management has repeatedly sent out contract extensions, Milenkovic did not give a clear answer on the renewal.
Florence naturally hopes to keep this defender, but if the player is unwilling to renew the contract, then the senior level is willing to send him away in order to obtain considerable capital income. In fact, Mourinho was concerned about Milenkovic as early as when he was in charge of Manchester United, but he did not decide to shoot and did not recommend high-level chase. Milenkovic moved from Partizan Belgrade to join Fiorentina three years ago at a cost of only 5.1 million euros. This tall central defender has made rapid progress in the Serie A arena, proving his impressive strength and has become an absolute candidate for the team's defense starting.
Tottenham’s performance in the new season is remarkable. The new players are gradually playing their respective roles. The reinforcement of Xia Chuang has received good results. All of this Levi is in sight, and Mourinho has more confidence in the future. Levi applied for funds for signings, hoping that the club would pursue Milenkovic. Mourinho always pays attention to the team's defense. Although he has signed Swansea defender Joe Rodden, the Portuguese coach thinks that this is far from enough and needs to introduce a stronger central defender.
Milenkovic, who has excellent physical fitness and obvious high-altitude advantages, has successfully won the favor of Mourinho. Fiorentina price 25 million euros for his watch. As long as this price requirement is met, this powerful central defender can be taken away. However, if Spurs wants to take Milenkovic away, they need to face fierce competition from AC Milan. This Serie A team with outstanding performance in the new season has not given up the opportunity to strengthen in the winter window, and vowed to start with Spurs. Fight together", do not want to see the end of the person you like being cut by Tottenham.
