Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Tottenham attacking midfielder, Dele Alli, has been advised to leave the club and the city of London entirely.<\/p>\n

Former Tottenham striker, Darren Bent, warned that the England international is going \u2018stale\u2019 at the club and should consider leaving London to revive his career.<\/p>\n

Spurs midfielder, Alli was singled out for particular criticism following their shocking 2-1 defeat to Mura in the Europa Conference League during the week.<\/p>\n

Bent suggested a move away from London could be the best way to revitalise Alli\u2019s career.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think he needs a fresh challenge somewhere else,\u201d he told talkSPORT<\/p>\n

\u201cHe looks to me like the world is weighing him down, and it shouldn\u2019t do.<\/p>\n

\u201cListen, he is playing at a great football club \u2013 great players, great supporters \u2013 I think he needs to go elsewhere now. I think he needs to go somewhere and refocus.<\/p>\n

\u201cI did it, I left Spurs. I needed to go somewhere where I could just solely focus on playing football and for me, Sunderland was the perfect landing spot.<\/p>\n

\u201cUltimately, the following season I had the best season I ever had, scored 25 goals. But I needed to go somewhere where there was hardly any distractions and I could focus solely on playing football.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think Dele Alli is kind of in that situation where he maybe needs to get himself out of London and just focus on playing football again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tottenham\u2019s new boss, Antonio Conte, has started Alli in just one Premier League game and once in Europe \u2013 hardly enough time to make an impact.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think you just get to a point where you become stale in an environment. He needs to just go anywhere else and start again,\u201d Bent added.<\/p>\n
