West Ham United are reportedly set to battle with Newcastle United for the signing of Tottenham Hotspur's Dele Alli in January.

West Ham United are reportedly set to battle with Newcastle United for the signing of Tottenham Hotspur's Dele Alli in January.

The 25-year-old was handed his first Premier League start under Antonio Conte in the 2-2 with Liverpool last weekend, however the Italian head coach is not convinced that the midfielder will remain part of his long-term plans.

Alli is believed to have been given the green light to leave the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the winter window, with an initial loan move the most likely option.

According to Eurosport, both West Ham and Newcastle are interested in signing Alli, but a move for the midfielder will depend on whether they are successful in their pursuit of Manchester United's Jesse Lingard, who is believed to be the primary midfield target for both David Moyes and Eddie Howe.

The report adds that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy would prefer Alli to move abroad, with the Bundesliga the most likely destination should the Englishman decide to leave the Premier League.

Alli, who will see his contract expire in June 2024, has made 266 appearances for Tottenham across all competitions, scoring 67 goals and registering 61 assists.
