Tottenham to miss out on £9m MK Dons starlet

The Sunday Express are reporting that Liverpool have stolen a march on Tottenham and Arsenal in the race for £9million-rated MK Dons whizz-kid Dele Alli.

Express writer John Richardson claims that ‘Brendan Rodgers has made the signing of the attacking midfielder, 18, a priority, knowing that Spurs have also been in touch with the League One club.’

Liverpool plan to immediately loan Alli back to MK Dons until the end of the season, if they are able to complet the deal in January.

Hopefully Franco Baldini (what exactly does he do week in, week out?) and co have other targets up their sleeve, as reports over the potential of Alli claim that he has all the makings to be a top player in the Premier League.

What do you make of Franco Baldini’s involvement at Tottenham?  Have your say below.
