@MarcoHotSpurs According to a reliable Tottenham source, they are out of Moutinho pursuit and looking elsewhere.

The battle for the signature of Porto playmaker Joao Moutinho is set to be reignited this summer as Tottenham are likely to face competition from London rivals Chelsea, who are also reportedly keen on signing the player.

Moutinho was on the cusp of a move to North London last summer, but Spurs were unable to get the paperwork done in time on deadline day. Tottenham are still keen on the player with Manager Andre Villas-Boas keen to be reunited with the man who used the run the show for him in the middle of the park when at Porto.

Moutinho will be priced at £20 million, this summer, and Porto’s owner Pinta da Costa declared in an interview with Portuguese daily A Bola that he would be powerless to stop the player from leaving this season. Da Costa said, “It is hard to resist. We know that there are clubs with millionaires who have no limitations [in terms of] money, [such] as Chelsea and PSG.”

Da Costa’s mention of Chelsea has set tongues wagging that Jose Mourinho wants Moutinho at the club when he arrives in the summer, and as past experience has shown, what Mourinho wants, Mourinho gets.

Moutinho isn't a bad option at all for £20m.

Yup he is my 1st choice DLP for next season.He wouldnt cost the world either and would fit in nicely with the portugese speakers.

I'm worried and also intrigued by what will happen with Frank come end of the season. Moutinho is a very good player, no doubt about that but I worry about what route Lampard is going whether it be out the door or staying. He looked really off IMO, last night.

I'd love him to stay but I am not so sure, and maybe Moutinho can be the answer.

Hilario, Ferreira, Luiz, Ramires, Moutinho, Oscar and Jose Mourinho. Yet they say this is an English club!

Chelsea always was a club with a lot of nationalities, the Intermilan of England lets say, its a part of our identity.
