Newcastle United target Dele Alli has been linked with a surprise loan move to Spanish side Valencia.

The Tottenham Hotspur outcast has been out of favour at Spurs for a few years now and is set to depart his north London club on loan before the transfer window slams shut at 11pm tonight.

Alli came very close to joining Newcastle back in 2015 when he was plying his trade at MK Dons but opted for a switch to Spurs instead.

Newcastle had reportedly held an interest in bringing the midfielder to Tyneside this month, but those rumours have cooled after the Magpies signed Brazilian international Bruno Guimaraes, and continue to remain keen on Manchester United’s Jesse Lingard.

Alli could still end up at another Premier League club today, with Crystal Palace and Everton rumoured to be vying for his signature.

Palace want to sign the England midfielder on loan, and Everton want to buy the 25-year-old.

But a move to Spain may tempt Alli the most, especially with his teammate Bryan Gil edging closer to a move to Valencia himself.

Alli wouldn’t be the first high-profile Premier League player to head to the Spanish top-flight this month, with Ferran Torres joining Barcelona and Anthony Martial arriving on loan to Sevilla last week.
