Watford head coach Quique Sanchez Flores is a fan of Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli.

The 19-year-old has been one of the success stories of the Premier League season.

“Dele Alli is fantastic and is a very important player for Tottenham," Flores said.

“He is always in the right space and likes to get into the box. To be honest I didn't know him before this season.

"He is a young player who has been a big surprise in the Premier League with his level of performances.

“He is important because he can do a lot of things. He can play at the back of the midfield, he can run in behind defenders, he can run in the box and play like a striker. His value is very high in Tottenham's team."
