Dele Alli has told Sky Sports he is staying at Spurs, despite being linked with a big-money move to Paris Saint-Germain

Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli has been linked with a £50m move to Paris Saint-Germain, but the England man has told Sky Sports News HQ he sees his future at Spurs.

The 20-year-old joined the London club from MK Dons in 2015 and has made a huge impact, winning the PFA Young Player of the Year award in 2015-16 and forcing his way into the England set-up.

Speaking to us at a Premier League Kicks event in London, Alli insisted he had no intention of looking for a move away from White Hart Lane.

"It's all just rumours to be honest with you," he said.

"I have just signed a new contract with Tottenham, I am happy here. I couldn't think of a better place to be at my age.

"It has been a great year for me, I have had a lot of success in my career so far but I have got to keep improving, keep getting better, and make sure 2017 is even better."

Spurs have slipped to fifth in the Premier League after Sunday's defeat at Manchester United, and are now 10 points behind leaders Chelsea.

Alli believes Spurs are genuine title contenders

However, Dele thinks Mauricio Pochettino's men remain Premier League title contenders.

"I think so," he added. "We are a team that is confident in ourselves, we fancy ourselves against anyone.

"I think we need to be a little bit more consistent. We are still working on it and we are still working together as a team.

"But we have got a great side and we are happy to sit underneath the radar and just keep picking up points.

"It is no good being good in halves of games or in one game and not in the next one. When we find our rhythm, I am sure we will be a great team again."
