Paris Saint-Germain ready to walk away from Dele Alli talks
Paris Saint-Germain are threatening to pull the plug on talks to sign Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli, claims The Daily Telegraph.
Alli's future at Tottenham has been plunged into doubt after sensationally being axed by head coach Jose Mourinho.
Mourinho is reportedly keen to reunite with Manchester United outcast Jesse Lingard but must first offload Dele.
The England international has been offered to a number of clubs around Europe for a season-long loan deal and PSG were invited to discuss a potential deal.
