England and Tottenham star Dele Alli has been confirmed as a contestant in the Games Without Borders charity esports series, in his first public appearance since suffering a violent robbery at his home.

Dele will play the video game Fortnite as part of the series which is aiming to raise millions of dollars for the fight against coronavirus, with Spurs team mate Kyle Walker-Peters also set to take part in the tournament on Thursday night.

They will pair up to take on 50 of the world's best Fortnite-playing duos with up to $1 million on the line for the victors, with all prize money to be donated to the Covid-19 treatment charity of their choice.
