Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli seems to have a heart of gold.
Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli may be a feisty player on the pitch, but the England international seems to care deeply for the club’s fans.
The 21-year-old midfielder may not have come through Tottenham’s youth academy, but his recent gesture shows just how much the Spurs fans mean to him and just how much he cares about them.
As revealed by the youngster on social networking site Twitter, he recently gave away a pair of boots to Ken Stanley, a 96-year-old Tottenham fan who has been a season-ticket holder for 88 years.
Footballers do not always get the recognition they deserve for doing so much for the fans, and Alli’s simple yet graceful gesture should be heartwarming for football lovers all over the world. It shows that footballers care about the fans and understand what the club means to them.
Tottenham are guaranteed to finish second in the Premier League this season and will play in the group stage of the Champions League during the 2017-18 campaign.
