​Tottenham boss Pochettino positive over Alli return

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is confident that Dele Alli will be ready for the club very soon.

The England attacking midfielder has been recovering from a muscle injury for the past few weeks.

Now it is about ramping up his training to see if he will be ready to resume first team action.

On Alli, Pochettino said to reporters:"He's good. We're happy. This muscle injury is different. He's in the last part of his recovery. Difficult to know, maybe one week, 10 days, two weeks.

"In the last period, a key part of his recovery. We'll see because we're going to assess him day by day."
