Jose Mourinho has criticised Inter Milan for their pursuit of Tottenham midfielder Christian Eriksen after he was left out of the FA Cup fourth round tie with Southampton.
Eriksen travelled with his team-mates to St Mary’s but his omission from Mourinho’s squad indicates he may have played his last game for the club against Norwich in midweek.
The 27-year-old is close to sealing a £16.8m move to Italy which could see him earn up to £320,000 per week, according to Sky in Italy.
“You can read what you want to read. I don’t want to say anything,” Mourinho said.
“I just want to say that this situation shouldn’t happen on the 25th of January, and that it is not Tottenham’s fault that on the 25th of January we are in this situation.
“The only thing I can say is, Eriksen, since I arrived, has behaved in a very, very professional way with me and with the team.
“Tottenham is the last one to blame in this situation but to be on the 25th of January in a situation like this is not nice.”
