Paris Saint-Germain confident of signing Tottenham's Dele Alli
Paris Saint-Germain are optimistic of signing Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli on a season-long loan deal, claims The Daily Telegraph.
Alli is sensationally up for sale after being snubbed by Jose Mourinho in Tottenham's last two matches.
Mourinho reportedly wants to offload Alli in order to reunite with Manchester United outcast Jesse Lingard.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is torn by the idea of Alli leaving the club, particularly now his reputation is at an all-time low, coupled with transfer fees now down due to COVID-19.
PSG have emerged as frontrunners for the 24-year-old and are now discussing a potential loan deal, which suits Levy.

Alli managed a direct hand in 12 league goals in 2019/20, with six of those falling in the first four matches after Mourinho was appointed manager.
However, there recent behind-the-scenes documentary on Amazon revealed Mourinho criticising Alli as a 'lazy trainer' and his patience appears to have worn thin.
