Ian Wright has suggested on The Kelly and Wrighty Show that Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte could sell Dele Alli.
The Arsenal legend believes that Conte will try to get Tottenham midfielder Alli back to his best.
The BBC Sport pundit has suggested that if the Italian cannot do so, then he would not have any problem in moving on the 25-year-old England international midfielder.
Wright has added that Conte will not manage Alli the way Jose Mourinho did.
What Ian Wright has said
The former Arsenal star said on The Kelly and Wrighty Show: “The thing with Mourinho is that it’s like he wants to be in opposition with somebody, he wants to upset somebody.
“’That’s the guy I don’t like at the moment, I am giving him a chance, he is not taking it, see I gave him a chance, he didn’t take it’.
“Conte won’t do that with him. If he can get something out of him, he will try to get it out of him, but if he can’t, again, he has got no qualms in moving that on and doing what he wants to do.”
Dele Alli needs to step up
Time is running out for Alli at Spurs.
We all saw how he starred under Mauricio Pochettino in the first three or so years at Tottenham.
We expected the midfielder to go to another level by now.
That has not happened.
The Englishman is 25 now, and he has to really step up.
Tottenham manager Conte has already spoken highly of Alli, and it is clear that he will give him a chance.
It is up to Alli to take that chance, or Conte and Spurs chairman Daniel Levy could decide to simply move him on.
