David Beckham impressed by Dele Alli, Harry Kane form

Former England captain David Beckham praises the form of Tottenham Hotspur duo Dele Alli and Harry Kane this season.

Former England captain David Beckham has praised the form of Tottenham Hotspur duo Dele Alli and Harry Kane this season.

Alli has quickly established himself as a key member of the Tottenham team in his debut season in the Premier League, while Kane has been able to carry last term's form into the current campaign.

Their performances have helped Spurs to emerge as surprise title candidates this season, and Beckham is looking forward to seeing how both perform on the international stage in Euro 2016 this summer.

"I have been really impressed by Dele Alli. He has had a great season at Spurs. It is great to see young players coming through and playing with the enjoyment that you want them to play with," Beckham told talkSPORT.

"It is what Roy [Hodgson has] done so well - he has brought so many young players into the squad and given them the chance to play on the biggest stage. Harry Kane – you see a player like that and he has got an honesty about the way he plays and that is what I love seeing about the way he plays the game.

"He works hard and you can tell he cares about the game and you can tell he cares about playing for our country. Seeing players like that play on the biggest stage is exciting and I am looking forward to the Euros."

Alli has scored seven goals in 24 league appearances this season, while Kane has 16 in 26.
