Barcelona legend Xavi can see Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola moving for Dele Alli.
The Tottenham midfielder has enjoyed an outstanding campaign this season.
Xavi believes Guardiola is keen on Alli, telling The Sun: "I speak with Pep, and I know he thinks it is important to sign English players.
"I am sure in the summer he will look also across Europe for players to improve the squad, but also I expect him to look in The Premier League as well.
"At the moment the best English player there is and also one of the best in Europe is Dele Alli.
“We are looking at a very special player.
“Technically he is the sort of player that Pep likes, the sort of player that suits the style of game that Pep likes his teams to play.
“I am sure it is not going to be a player that Tottenham will want to let go, but we know Manchester City have big resources."
