Tottenham are not looking to sell or loan out Dele Alli during the January transfer window and expect the midfielder to stay and fight for his place in the team.
Alli has made only four appearances for Spurs in the Premier League this season, and has just two goals and one assist in 11 games in all competitions.
The club also have injuries in positions Alli could fill, with Gareth Bale, Giovani Lo Celso and Erik Lamela all currently unavailable.
But he has struggled to impress Mourinho in his rare performances this season, and the Spurs boss publicly blamed him for Stoke’s goal in the London club’s 3-1 Carabao Cup quarter-final victory last month.
