Paris Saint-Germain believe that Tottenham Hotspur are finally ready to let Dele Alli leave the club during the January transfer window, according to a report from the Daily Mail.

Dele’s future has been a talking point throughout the season. As noted by the Mail, PSG made three loan offers for the 24-year-old before the previous deadline.

He has since struggled to force his way into Jose Mourinho’s plans. And having featured against Crystal Palace and Liverpool recently, it appeared to be an ominous sign when he was left out of the match day squad altogether at the weekend.

It remains to be seen whether Mourinho has written Dele off. But the Daily Mail reports that he has received no explanation for his absence.

And that has seemingly encouraged the Ligue 1 side. According to the Mail, they believe that Tottenham are finally ready to let him go.

TBR View: Mourinho taking gamble letting Dele leave

Tottenham have not missed Dele during the opening months of the season. Mourinho’s men had been setting the pace before their last two games.

However, after suffering two defeats, it is perhaps fair to say that it may now be more of a gamble to let the England international – who earns £100,000-a-week, according to Spotrac – leave in January.

He scored eight Premier League goals last season. So it should come as no surprise if he does impress should he leave on loan.

That would potentially put Mourinho under a little pressure. If Spurs’ title challenge fades over the coming months while Dele impresses elsewhere, some may have questions about whether it was a good call to let him go.
