Steven Gerrard’s Rangers set to sign Tottenham’s Dele Alli on loan in January

Steven gerrard was backed to sensational attract the Tottenham star Dele Alli to Rangers by former Liverpool teammate Danny Murphy.

Alli, 24, gave up pecking under Jose Mourinho, with a possible departure from London in January.

He hasn’t made a Premier League start since day one of the new season.

But Murphy believes Gerrard could tempt Alli to move north to Scotland to sign for club Ibrox.

“I’m not sure Dele would be up for it, but I thought maybe Rangers Stevie G could persuade him to go out there and win him the title,” he told talkSPORT.

“He would play every week, score a lot of goals, gain confidence and impress Gareth Southgate.”

The former Fulham midfielder added: “There is an argument that it would be enough to score at this level because it is a drop. But I don’t know.

“Maybe playing under Stevie is something he would enjoy.”

Alli is completely out of favor at Spurs after a prolific stint at the club since his transfer from MK Dons in 2015.

He was a regular with former manager Mauricio Pochettino and played for England in the 2018 World Cup.

Although the midfielder has only made three league appearances this campaign with most of his appearances in the Europa League.

As for the Gers, they fly high at the top of the championship, with 13 points ahead of second-placed Celtic, but would need reinforcements before the second part of the season.

Alli to the Rangers? Watch this place.
