Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane has stressed that teammate Dele Alli deserves his call - up to the England national team, and will not be lacking company when he reports for duty at the start of this week.

The Anglo - Nigerian midfielder will no longer be eligible to represent Nigeria if he is handed game time in any of the games against Estonia and Lithuania as the matches are competitive.

“I will probably spend most of my time with him there because we are Spurs and I want to look after him, make sure he settles in all right, ” said Kane to thefa.com.

“I think he has deserved it - he has been outstanding for us this season.

“He has come in and for such a young lad, has settled very well. I am sure he is excited and everyone here is very proud of him. I don’t think he can wait to get going.”

Dele Alli had only six appearances to his name in the Premier League before earning his first England call - up.
