Thursday's Tottenham Hotspur transfer talk news roundup: Dele Alli, Christian Eriksen

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Tottenham on Thursday, January 28.

The January transfer window is now open, with Tottenham Hotspur continuing to be linked with a host of big names.

Spurs were busy during the summer window and showed signs of troubling the upper echelons of the Premier League table earlier this season, and Jose Mourinho could look to add to his squad again in an attempt to kick on even more.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Thursday morning's Tottenham Hotspur transfer talk news roundup:


Paris Saint-Germain 'confident of signing Dele Alli before deadline'

Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly confident of completing a deal to sign Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli before Monday's transfer deadline.

Former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is determined to land the 24-year-old, who has fallen out of favour under current manager Jose Mourinho this season.

The Daily Mirror reports that Tottenham will not allow Alli to leave permanently, although a loan deal remains a possibility, especially if Mourinho's side can find a replacement first.

Spurs are understood to have rejected three bids from the French champions for the midfielder last summer, however a deal to be agreed before 11pm on February 1 seems more likely.

Alli, who has three years left on his current contract, is determined to play more regularly during the second half of the season and hopes to break back into Gareth Southgate's England squad before next summer's Euro 2020.

The former MK Dons man has played just 74 minutes in the Premier League this campaign and has been omitted from Tottenham's matchday squad in 11 of their 18 top-flight games.



Antonio Conte: 'Christian Eriksen not leaving Inter Milan this month'

Inter Milan boss Antonio Conte has insisted that Christian Eriksen will not be leaving San Siro before the end of the January transfer window.

The Denmark international has largely struggled to make his mark for Inter since arriving from Tottenham Hotspur last January and continues to be linked with a move away from the Serie A side.

Manchester United, Wolverhampton Wanderers, West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur are among those to be credited with an interest in the 28-year-old.

Eriksen scored a late free kick in Inter's 2-1 win over bitter rivals AC Milan in the Coppa Italia on Tuesday night, though, and Conte insisted after the match that the attacker is not leaving this month.

"For a month now I've been saying the same thing: this is the Inter squad. Nobody will arrive, nobody will leave. I keep saying it and nobody seems to believe me," Conte told RAI Sport.

"We are working with Eriksen on a tactical level to find an alternative for [Marcelo] Brozovic, because we don't have someone like that in the squad.

"Christian is a very intelligent lad, he has quality, he's part of the project and I am happy he scored that goal. I really wanted him to take it, as we all know the quality he has from set plays."

Eriksen's current deal at San Siro is due to run until June 2024.
