AXED! Dele Alli missing from Spurs squad for Burnley

Dele Alli is out of Tottenham's squad for tonight's clash with Burnley.

The midfielder has struggled to make an impression this season amid speculation over his relationship with Spurs boss Jose Mourinho.

The Athletic says Alli will not travel to the north-west for the 8pm kick-off.

That is despite the player not suffering from any injury problems.

Mourinho did give Dele, 24, a run out against LASK in midweek.

He played the final half-hour of Spurs' comfortable 3-0 win over the Austrians that kicked off their Europa League campaign.
