EXCLUSIVE: Dele Alli's Tottenham future called into question as he's LEFT OUT of trip to face Burnley in Carabao Cup tie, despite Nuno Espirito Santo calling it a 'final' and taking a full-strength squad

Tottenham star Dele Alli's position in Nuno Espirito Santo's plans has been thrown into uncertainty with the midfielder set to be omitted from the squad to face Burnley on Wednesday.

Sportsmail has learned that Alli has not been included in the party that travels to Turf Moor for the Carabao Cup game that head coach Nuno described as a 'final'.

Alli is not injured, with the Spurs head coach likely to point to the fact he has rotated his squad for the club's European and cup games this season as a reason for his absence.
