Tottenham Hotspur head coach Jose Mourinho has been making full use of a bicycle during the team’s training sessions in recent days and he’s now explained why. The Portuguese has been spotted cycling around Hotspur Way and some of the Spurs stars like Dele Alli and Son Heung-min have also been photographed getting on their bikes. Mourinho explained that his bicycle has become essential as he deals with having so many players spread out around the training ground due to social distancing.
Jose Mourinho said: “I would like to do more and more [work in the community] but when we started moving to opening the training ground to players, it becomes impossible. There was a period where we were starting 9 AM in the morning and finishing 5 PM because by having players training individually, we had to organise lots of different slots, and the boys were coming at different times. We were really tired for a certain period. You can find a funny picture of me on a bike because we covered a huge distance and without the bike, I couldn’t control all of the sessions at the same time!”
