# Tottenham Hotspur: Daniel Levy expected to sanction Dele Alli sale

**Speaking to [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-alli-levy-tottenham-sale/), a Tottenham Hotspur source has explained that there is a feeling ‘at the top of the club’ that chairman Daniel Levy could now sanction a discounted sale for big name Dele Alli at the end of the season – despite previously being prepared to ride out his poor patch.**

Indeed, as per this report, Tottenham will more than likely work on a £25 million exit for the Englishman barring an upturn in form – coming after Levy apparently thought Spurs were well placed to keep faith due to the fact he is contracted until 2024 with his best years still ahead of him.

### Tottenham U-turn on Alli

As explained by Football Insider, the Lilywhites chairman ‘[upset](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-alli-levy-tottenham-sale/)‘ manager Jose Mourinho by blocking Alli’s loan move to Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain – with financial reasons touted as the reason Levy refused to agree a deal.

Extensive discussions were held with PSG over the switch, but no agreement came to pass, with the 24-year-old remaining at Tottenham.

Now, a source close to the club has told Football Insider there is a feeling at the very top Levy is prepared to sanction a near half-price £25m exit for him in the summer transfer window – coming down from his previous asking price of £45m.

If Alli does leave the club for that amount, it’s safe to say it wouldn’t exactly be the fairy tale ending for his north London career after a promising start to life.

### Transfer Tavern take

He was heralded by previous boss Mauricio Pochettino, with the Argentine even calling him a ‘beast’ ([Sky Sports](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.skysports.com/amp/football/news/11675/11587495/dele-alli-is-a-beast-says-tottenham-boss-mauricio-pochettino)), but he hasn’t earned the same favour from Mourinho.

Levy was apparently [prepared to ride out his slump](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-alli-levy-tottenham-sale/), however, feelings now coming out of the club may indicate the chairman is willing to perform a drastic U-turn.
