New Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho has accepted the intrusion of Amazon into his day-to-day work.

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy agreed to a 10million offer from Amazon to film a fly-on-the-wall documentary series documenting the club's season.

The Mirror says Mourinho revealed he was on board after being asked whether he was happy with his participation during Thursday's media briefings for the written press.

His silent response, however, spoke a thousand words. Putting his finger to his lips, he opened up the pocket to his tracksuit trousers to reveal a small microphone pack before tucking it back away again, saying nothing.

Mourinho has made clear that he will determine when cameras are allowed into his office.

During his time as Manchester United boss, he criticised Manchester City's similar deal with the on-demand streaming service.

"You can be a rich club and buy all the best players in the world but you cannot buy class."
