Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba says Tottenham star Dele Alli is ‘worth more than £100m’
DELE ALLI is worth more than £100m, according to Manchester United star Paul Pogba.
The Tottenham and England midfielder continues to be one of the most impressive Premier League performers, and that has alerted Europe's biggest clubs.
And Pogba, who rejoined United for a then-world record £89m in the summer of 2016, believes Alli's value is soaring - and will continue to go even higher.
Speaking to the Evening Standard, the flamboyant Frenchman said: “I think he is worth even more than £100m because you see how he plays — he is very talented but still very young.
"But he is mature as well — you can see that in his football. He can deal with the talk. You can see he doesn’t care.
"He should, and will, focus on his football, and the rest, they will always speak. Always focus on the field.”
SunSport reported earlier this week how Pogba could well be linking up with Alli with Manchester United eyeing a sensational summer swoop.
The Tottenham star may see himself in the middle of a transfer tug-of-war with Real Madrid also interested in his signature.

And Alli fits the bill at Madrid and is reportedly already on Florentino Perez's transfer shortlist.
But United will hope to convince the playmaker that his future belongs in the Premier League if he does decide to leave Spurs.
