Alli denies PSG links


Dele Alli insists there is no truth in the rumours linking him with a big-money move to Paris Saint-Germain.

Alli moved to White Hart Lane in January 2015 but he had to wait until the opening day of the 2015-16 campaign before making his debut for the club.

He went on to enjoyed a stunning debut season for Tottenham, scoring ten goals and providing 11 assists as he made 46 appearances, and his achievements saw him named PFA Young Player of the Year.

Despite signing a new six-year deal that will tie him to Tottenham until the end of June 2022, the 20-year-old has been linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain, but the England international has no plans to leave White Hart Lane anytime soon.

"It's all just rumours to be honest with you," Alli told Sky Sports News HQ.

"I have just signed a new contract with Tottenham, I am happy here. I couldn't think of a better place to be at my age.

"It has been a great year for me, I have had a lot of success in my career so far but I have got to keep improving, keep getting better, and make sure 2017 is even better."

Tottenham were beaten 1-0 by Manchester United on Sunday to drop to fifth in the Premier League table, ten points behind leaders Chelsea, but Alli insists it is too early to rule them out of the title race.

"We are a team that is confident in ourselves, we fancy ourselves against anyone," Alli said. "I think we need to be a little bit more consistent. We are still working on it and we are still working together as a team.

"But we have got a great side and we are happy to sit underneath the radar and just keep picking up points.

"It is no good being good in halves of games or in one game and not in the next one. When we find our rhythm, I am sure we will be a great team again."
