Dele Alli is a '£50m-plus player', claims Jamie Redknapp as he says Tottenham can be 'one of the best midfielders in the world'

Jamie Redknapp believes Dele Alli is well on course to become one of the best midfielders in the world following his man-of-the-match performance against Southampton.

Alli scored twice on his 50th appearance for Tottenham as Mauricio Pochettino's side came from a goal down to beat the Saints 4-1 at St Mary's on Wednesday night.

Harry Kane also got his name of the score sheet with a powerful header after an inspired tactical switch from Pochettino, while Son Heung-min added gloss to the result with a superb finish late on.
