David Ornstein has been speaking on The Athletic’s YouTube channel about the situation surrounding Tottenham Hotspur’s Dele Alli.
It had been reported last week by Football.london that Alli was interesting a handful of Premier League clubs, but now it looks like the midfielder could be heading to the continent.
Should Alli leave Spurs?
Yes!
No!
Alli has not been the same player that burst on the scene at Tottenham back in 2015 for the last few seasons, and a loan move may well reignite his career as it did for fellow England international Jesse Lingard did last season.
Ornstein has revealed that La Liga outfit Valencia are looking to land Alli.
“Dele Alli has some interest now, which hasn’t been the case throughout the window. I’m told and I’ve revealed in the Monday column that Valencia are looking into a possible move for him on loan before the window shuts.
“Their financial situation is extremely complicated, so some people have said to me this morning there’s just no chance of that happening, but they’re considering it.”
TIF Thoughts on Dele Alli’s Spurs future…
Alli may well see moving abroad as a way to completely reset and find the spark which has clearly been missing in recent years as his attacking numbers have been on a downward spiral over that time.
It appears that a move away will be very important for Alli, given that Rodrigo Bentancur reportedly could be set to join Tottenham and would add yet more competition for him, so if the English midfielder has any aspirations of getting back to top form and back into the England squad, he arguably needs to ensure he moves before the deadline passes.
