Tottenham are “open” to allow Dele Alli to leave in January, according to reports.
After a promising start to the campaign, the 25-year-old is no longer popular under Nuno Espirito Santo.

Alli started the season as a rookie, albeit in a withdrawn midfield role.
Good form in August gave way to a tricky patch in September – culminating in the former England star’s first-half entry against Arsenal.
No. 20 has not entered the Premier League yet since that 3-1 defeat – and he wasn’t even named as a substitute for last night’s League Cup match with Burnley.
When Dele was out of his game last season under Jose Mourinho, PSG tried to sign him on loan in January.
But Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy refused to agree to a deal at the time.

Paris Saint-Germain is no longer a favorite for his signature, having signed Lionel Messi in the summer.
But the move to Newcastle is “realistic”.
Asked why Alli was left out after last night’s 1-0 win at Turf Moor, Nuno said: “Not only Deeley, it was Harry (Winks) too, they are our players, and we’re still focused on getting the best out of each of our players.
“Daily is one of the cases we have to try to improve.”
Nono, who was asked if any of the players were in contention to play against Manchester United on Saturday, added, “We will travel. We have a training session tomorrow and we will evaluate all the players as we always do.
“They are our players so anything is possible, that’s my answer.”
Dele made 262 appearances for Tottenham since joining in 2015; He scored 62 goals and 61 assists.
But of those hits, only two have come this season – a penalty against Wolverhampton and a cross against NS Moura.
