Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho has confirmed that midfielder Christian Eriksen will start against Norwich on Wednesday night.
Eriksen has been heavily linked with a January move to Inter Milan, with Sky Sports reporting that the Italian giants have offered £11m for the Dane.
Despite the interest, Mourinho has revealed that Eriksen will line up for Spurs against the Canaries in the Premier League. This comes after he was left out of the starting XI against Watford at the weekend, with Spurs slumping to a 0-0 draw against the relegation-threatened side.
