Injured Dele Alli makes quick return to training

Dele Alli has returned to training already as he bids to make a comeback for Tottenham Hotspur.

The midfielder limped out of Spurs’ win over Fulham last month and was told he would miss at least six weeks through injury.

However, Dele is currently out in Dubai completing some warm weather training and seems in good spirits.

Somewhat incredibly, the 22-year-old is already running – despite the initial diagnosis ruling him out until March.

The news is likely to be greatly received by boss Mauricio Pochettino, who is currently also without talisman Harry Kane.

After suffering a heavy tackle against Manchester United, the England captain was also ruled out until March.

However, Kane is also completing warm weather and is targeting a return to the side before the Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund.

The 25-year-old admitted his ankle ‘felt great’ as he watched the New England Patriots defeat the LA Rams in Atlanta at Super Bowl LIII.
