The arrival of Jose Mourinho has seen a number of players return to the starting XI as well as drop out of it, and Harry Winks has found himself in the latter category.

As stats from Transfermarkt show, the England international has been in and out of the Spurs first-team since the Portuguese manager took over from Mauricio Pochettino, and this is seemingly something other Premier League clubs are taking note of with The Athletic reporting that both Manchester City and Manchester United are monitoring Winks situation at Tottenham.
Will Tottenham be active in the January window?
Yes! We have to be!
No! Daniel Levy won't spend
Despite coming through the academy and asserting himself as a comfortable first-team player, some Tottenham fans on social media felt the club should cash in on Winks if two Premier League giants are interested in the deep-lying playmaker.
Here’s what some Tottenham fans had to say on Twitter about the club potentially selling Winks on Twitter…

Winks twisted his ankle against Middlesbrough on the weekend, making the midfielder a doubt for Tottenham’s massive Premier League clash against Liverpool.
