Dele Alli Doubtful for Manchester City Champions League Clash

By Daily Sports on April 17, 2019

Midfielder Dele Alli has been named in Tottenham’s squad for their Champions League quarter-final second leg but will be assessed before Spurs decide if he will play against Manchester City.

Alli broke his hand in last week’s first leg but has returned to training.

City midfielder Fernandinho has trained after missing Sunday’s win over Crystal Palace with a muscle problem.

Sergio Aguero was withdrawn late on at Palace but is fit, although Oleksandr Zinchenko (hamstring) is a doubt.

Spurs forward Erik Lamela, who has not played since the last-16 second leg against Borussia Dortmund on 5 March because of a hamstring injury, has also trained and like Alli will be assessed after Tuesday’s training session.

On Alli, manager Mauricio Pochettino said: “We need to assess him.

“We are going to have the last training session today and then to decide if it’s possible he can be in the starting 11 or on the bench.”

Serge Aurier (hamstring), Eric Dier (hip flexor) and Harry Winks (groin) are all out, as is striker Harry Kane after he suffered an ankle injury in the first leg.

Tottenham take a 1-0 lead to the Etihad Stadium after Son Heung-min’s goal in the first leg last Tuesday. (BBC)
