Spurs have also warned their stars not to break social distancing guidelines after two separate videos posted online showed players ignoring the advice to stay at least 6ft apart.
A club spokesperson said: “All of our players have been reminded to respect social distancing when exercising outdoors. We shall continue to reinforce this message.”
But Tottenham boss Mourinho, who was wearing the club’s official training kit, could face a sterner warning from cops after he was filmed conducting a training drill involving what looked like three players with members of the public just yards away.
SunSport understands one of the players was £65million record signing Tanguy Ndombele.
An online video showed Davinson Sanchez and Ryan Sessegnon jogging around the same park much closer together than the government’s recommended two metres apart.
And in yet another posting, Serge Aurier could also be seen flouncing the safety measures as he trained closely with a pal.

But a club source claims he had only intended to do a fitness session with flop Ndombele – which is still against the measures put in place in a bid to combat coronavirus, which has now claimed 6,159 lives in the UK.
