Man Utd boss Mourinho: Pochettino and I always talk Spurs transfers...

Published on: 28 October 2017

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho is confident Tottenham rival Mauricio Pochettino doesn't hate him.

Pochettino rapped Mourinho in his new book for approaching Eric Dier amid talk of United being keen to sign him.

Mourinho said: “I don't know if it is Mauricio's words or it is his ghost writer's, I really don't know.

“What I do know, is that every season, during the summer, before every season he calls me and I call Mauricio and we ask about each other's players to see if they are or not available.

“I don't know why I should speak to Dier on a football match day in the tunnel, maybe it is to try and sell books. Maybe his ghost writer wants to make some money.

“I have the player that I want to have. Probably I have the player I didn't think it was possible to have but we got the player I really wanted."

The United boss refused to comment on whether he had made a strong bid for Dier when he first arrived at United in the summer of 2016.

He said: “I never said that I want Dier. I never say who the players are I want."
