DELE ALLI was spotted in the stands of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium two years after he left the club.
Dele, 27, burst onto the scene at Spurs in 2015 at the tender age of 19 and shone bright in the Premier League as well as the Champions League.
The versatile midfielder was so instrumental that he helped the North Londoners make the Champions League final in 2019 when they were defeated 2-0 by Liverpool.
And the former England international returned to his old stomping grounds to watch Ange Postecoglou’s men take on Brighton in the Premier League.
Dele watched Tottenham pick up a last-gasp 2-1 victory following Brennan Johnson’s winner in the sixth minute of stoppage time.
That was after Everton’s Premier League clash against Manchester City at the Etihad.

That led to a move to Everton where he looked to regain his former prowess.
But Dele struggled to recreate his magic of old and that led to a hapless loan stint at Besiktas.
The playmaker is back with the Toffees now but has been nursing a groin injury since March.
He bravely opened up in the summer about the trauma he suffered as a child.
