Dele Alli keen to help young teammates through lockdown

Tottenham midfielder, Dele Alli, admits he’s unhappy with the UK’s coronavirus lockdown.

However, Alli is making sure his younger teammates are staying positive.

He admitted: “It’s been difficult. This is the longest I’ve had off from the training ground and not training.

“I wouldn’t say it’s been a good break because it was unexpected. But I’ve been missing playing, so I’m just trying to find ways to keep myself entertained and fit.”

Alli added: “As a more experienced player, I’ve been speaking to the younger lads and just making sure they are alright.
