Dele Alli hints at imminent return after emotional Spurs homecoming

Dele Alli has hinted at an imminent return to professional football after an emotional homecoming at Tottenham Hotspur.

He was the club's half-time Guest of Honour for the north London derby against Arsenal, and while on the pitch he said: "I can't wait to get back on the pitch playing, hopefully it won't be too long now."

Alli has not been employed by a club since his exit from Como in 2025 and received a warm reception from supporters during the fixture.
