Mourinho frustrated with Eriksen's unreolved move to Inter

Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has expressed his frustration regarding the issue surrounding Christian Eriksen. The Dane has been linked with a move to Inter but a deal hasn’t been reached yet, which is something that is bothering Mourinho.

The Portuguese stated that the deal should not have been unresolved by now while also suggesting that it is Inter’s fault that there has not been a conclusion to this deal as of yet. He said,

"You can read what you want to read [into Eriksen being left out] - I just want to say that this situation shouldn't happen on the 25th of January."
"And it is not Tottenham's fault that on the 25th of January we are in the situation.
"The only thing I can say is Eriksen, since I arrived, he is behaving in a very, very professional way, with me and the team.
"Tottenham is the last one to blame for this situation, but to be on the 25th of January in a situation like this is not nice."
