Tottenham Hotspur head coach Nuno could use midfielder Dele Alli as a forward, according to Eurosport.

What’s the story?

Eurosport are reporting today that Alli is completely over Jose Mourinho’s snub last season.

The 25-year-old midfielder was largely a squad player last season and failed to play regularly.

The Tottenham no.20 made seven starts and eight substitute appearances in the Premier League in 2020-21.

Alli made six starts and two substitute appearances in the Europa League last season.

Eurosport are reporting today that Alli will not join Paris Saint-Germain this summer.

The midfielder wants to be an important player for new Spurs head coach Nuno.

Nuno wants the option to play two players upfront, and the former Wolverhampton Wanderers boss could use Alli as one of the forwards.

Exciting

It will be interesting to see how Alli does as a forward, if indeed he is given that role next season.

What is very exciting for Spurs fans is the prospect of new head coach Nuno playing two players upfront.

That means an exciting brand of football at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and one that should satisfy the fans.

Tottenham will be determined to finish in the top four of the Premier League table next season.
