Pep after Dele?
Manchester City could be looking to sign Tottenham Hotspur young superstar Dele Alli this summer. The rumors were sparked by an interview from Xavi Hernández, the Barcelona legend who worked with Pep Guardiola at Barça and says that the Catalan manager will be looking at sign Alli this summer.
"I speak with Pep and I know he thinks it is important to sign English players. At the moment the best English player - and also one of the best in Europe - is Dele Alli. We are looking at a very special player.
"Technically he is the sort of player that Pep likes, the sort of player that suits the style of game that Pep likes to play. I am sure Tottenham will not want to let him go but we know Manchester City have big resources.
"I am sure in the summer he will look across Europe for players but I also expect him to look in the Premier League."
