The midfielder hit his peak in the 2018/19 season when former manager Mauricio Pochettino was there and has since then fallen off under Jose Mourinho with no way above for him

Sky Sports reporter Fabrizio Romano stated that the English midfielder is pushing for a move away from Tottenham Hotspur. The minutes are hard to come by at Tottenham as manager Jose Mourinho prefers to use Tanguy Ndombele, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Harry Winks as the midfield 3 with Dele Alli sticking out. A move to Paris Saint-Germain will be attractive for him as former manager Mauricio Pochettino is there and perhaps it would be a chance to regain some lost form.

The minutes are hard to come by for the Englishman when there’s a chance to represent England

England play in the Euro 2021 this summer but manager Gareth Southgate might not pick Dele Alli since he doesn’t have much minutes under his belt. The 24 year old England midfielder has only made 4 appearances in the Premier League this season while making six appearances in the Europa League. He has played once in the Carabao Cup while he made a good start in the FA Cup getting an assist. His figures have not been good as he has scored only two goals this whole season with both coming in the Europa League.

Fabrizio Romano reports that Dele Alli is pushing to leave the club in the transfer window and join Paris Saint-Germain. The French club does have an interest in him as former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is there. There has also been reports that Inter Milan midfielder Christian Eriksen is trying to push a move to Paris Saint-Germain too. It remains to be seen who will end up at Paris Saint Germain or if they even will.
