“When I was a kid, it was always a big dream for me to be a Premier League player,” he told Sky Germany.
“I am very happy and satisfied with my career so far, but I still lack one thing because I always had this dream and it never came true… to be part of the Premier League.
“I have watched so many Premier League matches since I was young and even now I follow the Premier League a lot.
“I always enjoy playing in the Champions League against English clubs. The atmosphere, the style and the idea of football have always impressed me.
‘If possible, it will surely be a great dream [come true] And an honor to be part of the Premier League. ‘
The German midfielder played with Mourinho for three seasons between 2010 and 2013
Khedira spent three seasons with Mourinho during his time at Real Madrid and made it clear why he still rated the Portuguese manager so well, now at Tottenham.
The Germany international also revised the name of Everton coach Carlo Ancelotti, who also coached him at Real Madrid.
He added: ‘Because of his personality. He is always direct, honest, clear-minded and a great coach.
Many people talk about him [being] too defensive but he’s a winner, he’s a champion. That’s why I was more impressed.
Khedira still has a minute to play for Juventus this season under the direction of Andrea Pirlo
‘I really enjoyed working with José Mourinho, but there are many coaches I would like to work with.
“I would never say no to José Mourinho again, but he is not the only boy I would say I would like to work with again.
‘There are a lot of coaches, even in the Premier League that I respect a lot.
“Ancelotti is doing a great job at the moment and he’s a great personality. He is one of the coaches who also impressed me.
Khedira has yet to play for Juventus this season and playing time was increasingly limited there last season, with just 18 appearances.
In his sixth season with the Turin club, it is unlikely that his contract will be renewed beyond its expiration next summer.
