Alli is a very good footballer and could become a world-class player in the coming years. It should not come as a surprise that Bayern are (reportedly) interested in him.

It would be interesting to see what happens if the Bundesliga giants do make an offer for the Tottenham in the summer.

Would Alli be tempted to swap White Hart Lane for the Allianz Arena? Would Spurs be willing to accept a big offer?
