Football: Mourinho and Spurs 'working' on new striker

Having expressed concerns over the fixture schedule this season, Jose Mourinho wants to 'balance' his squad. Mourinho: "Yes, I want, I need a striker, but I want to make it very, very clear that the club – the structure above me – knows that I need a striker and also wants a striker. Are we going to get one? I believe so. I honestly believe so. For the balance of the squad, the team needs it because in this moment the squad is getting very balanced, with different options for different positions. Especially after the gift we had from the EFL and UEFA, that gives me after 20 years of football a unique experience of playing Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday for two consecutive weeks. We realise that more than ever we need that. So, yes, we’re working on it."
