Mourinho ‘Desperate’ For Premier League Return

Jose Mourinho, Tottenham Hotspur manager, has just denied reports that he tried to delay the Premier League from restarting due to concerns for players’ fitness.

He said that he would appreciate the opportunity to get back to work in spite of the risks and challenges that the pandemic has posed.

Earlier in April, Mourinho was forced to apologize after he was caught breaking lockdown order in order to hold a training session with his midfielder Tanguy Ndombele in a public park.

The manager noted that his position in the meeting has been only reflected fairly in the media reports as he has not asked for any delay to the game.  

And that he is particularly desperate for the return of the Premier League as soon as it is safe to do so and that he is also very proud of the way his players have continued to maintain their fitness even in the face of the pandemic.
