Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has warned that Dele Alli needs to be carefully developed if he is to fulfil his potential.
The 19-year-old has impressed since breaking into the Spurs first team this season, earning an England call-up on the way to helping Tottenham climb into the top four.
Alli scored a stunning equaliser to win his side a point against Everton at Goodison Park this afternoon, and Pochettino does not see any reason why the youngster cannot maintain his form heading into Euro 2016 this summer.
"Yes [he can keep up this form] if he shows that in every training session he deserves to play, why not?" he told reporters.
"I think the goal was fantastic, a great goal. From the beginning we have had to take care of him. We need to be careful. That is important when they are young, to handle them in a good way."
Alli has now scored five goals in 18 league games this season.
