Tottenham boss Mourinho wants out-of-favour Alli to follow Ndombele's example and get Spurs career back on track

The England international has been used sparingly in the early season and has been urged to look to the Frenchman's example

Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has said that out-of-favour midfielder Dele Alli should follow the example set by Tanguy Ndombele.

Alli has seen himself fall down the Spurs pecking order in recent weeks, failing to even make the bench for wins over Lokomotiv Plovdiv and Southampton before starting and playing an hour in Thursday's win at Shkendija.

The England midfielder has been linked with a move away from north London much like his team-mate Ndombele, who has often found himself out of Mourinho's lineup since moving from Lyon in July 2019.
