Tottenham 'eye Christian Eriksen return if Dele Alli leaves'

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly poised to move for Inter Milan outcast Christian Eriksen, but only if Dele Alli first joins Paris Saint-Germain.

Eriksen has been informed by Inter that he is free to leave following a difficult 12 months at San Siro since joining from Tottenham.

Alli, meanwhile, has struggled for starts under Jose Mourinho this season and has been touted as a target for former boss Mauricio Pochettino at PSG.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the futures of both players are intertwined as Mourinho is effectively interested in swapping Alli for Eriksen.

However, in order to fund a move for the Danish playmaker, Spurs will first have to offload Alli, with PSG the only club believed to be showing a serious interest.

Tottenham have also been tipped to move for Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic this month on a loan deal.
