Tottenham Hotspur boss Jose Mourinho was seen overseeing a makeshift session with French midfielder Tanguy Ndombele on Hadley Common yesterday, with the pair of Davinson Sánchez and Ryan Sessegnon also pictured jogging beside each other.
According to The Athletic’s Charlie Eccleshare, the duo weren’t involved in the Portuguese personal session with Ndombele, only briefly meeting with him to receive instructions on their training.
Nevertheless, Tottenham have told them off and have once again stressed the importance of social distancing when exercising outdoor to their players.
According to The Athletic, yesterday’s one-on-one session – that lasted around an hour and consisted of routine stretching, sprinting, and jogging – was more of a psychological strategy on Mourinho’s part to make Ndombele feel important and part of the team following a tough start to life in the English top-flight.
