Spurs star almost joined Inter Milan

The England international was heavily linked with a move to the Italian giants last summer.

“It was something that would turn a footballer’s head because you want to play in Europe and Inter went on to win the Champions League last year,” Jenas told the Evening Standard.

“The Jose Mourinho factor was there and a lot of players would love to play for him. At that particular time I am not going to say it did not interest me.

“I am very happy in the Premier League and I like being in London but Italy had not come into my mind until Mourinho started talking.”
