Could Jose Mourinho find a new home at a third Premier League club?
According to one report, the ex-Chelsea and Manchester United manager is keeping a close eye on Tottenham and the uncertainty that lingers over Mauricio Pochettino's future.
The potential of a job opening in north London might even lead to him turning down a big-name former employer.

Jose Mourinho has told friends he is "confident" of being offered a return to Real Madrid but may hold out for the Tottenham job, according to The Sun.
Zinedine Zidane is in his second stint in charge of Madrid, while Mauricio Pochettino has spent more than five years at the Spurs helm.
The report suggests it is the latter position that Mourinho covets more, meaning he "would not necessarily accept" another spell in the Spanish capital.
ROUND-UP
- Manchester United could launch a January move for Gareth Bale , reports The Sun. According to the newspaper, Real Madrid knows of United's interest in Wales winger Bale and would be happy to let him leave the Santiago Bernabeu, providing it can do a deal that involves Paul Pogba moving in the other direction.
- Spanish outlet ElDesmarque reports news that could complicate any Bale-Pogba exchange, stating that although Madrid is indeed keen on France playmaker Pogba , so is the player's former club Juventus , with Cristiano Ronaldo said to be supportive.
