Dele Alli Undergoes Scan on Suspected Broken Hand as Tottenham Try to Keep Midfielder Available

Tottenham will look for a way to allow Dele Alli to continue playing if scans reveal the midfielder has broken his hand.

He was subbed off during the closing stages of Spurs' Champions League quarter-final victory over Manchester City on Tuesday, with the 23-year-old tentatively holding his wrist as he left the field of play.

The following day he underwent X-rays to determine the extent of the injury with no news regarding the issue released as of yet. If he has, indeed, broken his hand, the club's medical team will explore avenues that would enable Alli to feature in the run-in.
