Tottenham outcast Dos Santos on Inter Milan boss Mourinho's transfer radar

Jose Mourinho has his eye on Tottenham Hotspur outcast Giovani dos Santos. The Mexico forward fears his first team opportunities will be again limited this season at White Hart Lane and it is believed boss Harry Redknapp is ready to listen to offers. Inter Milan boss Chelsea was impressed with the way Dos Santos led his country to the North American Gold Cup, where he was named player of the tournament earlier this summer. Dos Santos, 20, struggled with injuries and lacklustre form after moving from Barcelona for £4.7million last summer and boss Harry Redknapp sent him on loan to Ipswich at the back end of last season. Deportivo la Coruna and Espanyol are interested in taking him back to Spain. Meanwhile, France Under 21 defender Dorian Dervite hopes to resolve his Spurs future in the next few days. 'I just want to play,' he told French newspaper L'Equipe. 'At Tottenham I played in one Carling Cup match (against Port Vale in 2006) and then I injured my knee. Everything then became very complex. 'At the moment I am among the youngest players looking to break into the first team. But there are a lot of good defenders at the club. I am working hard but it doesn't seem to be enough.' Villarreal emerged as a potential destination yesterday, but Dervite also claims interest from Lens, Montpellier and Ajax.
