Mourinho preparing €142M for Aké and Rúben Dias

'The Express' reported that Tottenham are prepared to spend big next transfer window to strengthen their defensive line. Mourinho has reportedly asked for Aké and Rúben Dias for the 2020-21 campaign, but it will not be cheap.

Mourinho is ready to lead a revolution in the Premier League. The Portuguese coach is aware that he has problems at the back, which is why the names of Ake and Ruben Dias have been put forward.

According to the source cited, Tottenham would be willing to offer up to 142 million euros to take over the defenders of Bournemouth and Benfica, two of the projects in England and Portugal.

Tottenham will face fierce competition to take on both defenders. For Ake, both Chelsea and Arsenal are looking to buy the Bournemouth player, who despite interest from Europe's big teams, ended up staying with his time. 

Tottenham will have a tougher time with Ruben Dias. Pep Guardiola is also keen to strengthen the defense and has therefore taken an interest in Benfica's defender, who was renewed in November until 2024.

The source also mentions other names as possible reinforcements of Tottenham. Max Aarons, Youcef Atal and Ben Chilwell could also arrive at a lower price.
