LONDON (UK) – Despite being linked with a loan transfer to Paris St Germain, Dele Alli is not expected to leave Tottenham Hotspur in the January transfer window, said manager Jose Mourinho.
The English player has made only four appearances this season and three as substitute. He has been criticised by Mourinho many times.
There were media reports linking Alli with a bid to shift to PSG and be reunited with former Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino, who assumed control of the Ligue 1 champions earlier this month. But according to Mourinho, there will not be a move before the transfer window shuts.
“I expect (him to be here) and I’m saying that since the beginning of the window. I wasn’t expecting anyone to leave or expecting anyone to come,” Mourinho said.
“We’re almost at the end of the window. I don’t believe that anything will happen but it’s open still. Football is football and the transfer window is open and sometimes unexpected things can happen but I don’t expect it.”
