Chelsea and Spurs on alert as Wesley Sneijder is valued at £12.75m by Galatasaray
Dutchman won the Treble at Inter with Mourinho and fancies a reunion, but he has his admirers at White Hart Lane too
Jose Mourinho has been told he can have a reunion with Wesley Sneijder in exchange for £12.75million.
The Galatasaray midfielder worked with the Special One to clinch the Italian league and cup Double and European Cup at Inter Milan three years ago.
Injuries and poor form, however, have seen Sneijder lose the Holland captaincy to Manchester United striker Robin van Persie.
He recently declared himself interested in again working with Mourinho, who will set about tweaking the Stamford Bridge squad he inherited from Rafa Benitez after being officially unveiled on Monday.
And Galatasaray president Unal Aysal has told the west Londoners that the 29-year-old can go if the price is right. He said: “I have been following the rumours about Sneijder, but we have not received an offer for him.
“If an offer in the region of €15million (£12.75m) comes in, we might decide to sell him though.”
Those comments could also interest Spurs, who are long-time admirers of the midfield schemer.
Sneijder is seen at White Hart Lane as the kind of experienced leader that Andre Villas-Boas’ side have lacked in recent seasons.
