Alli, Emmanuel-Thomas and Stead leaders in race for Jan's League One PFA Fans' Player of the Month

29 January 2015 13:26

Dele Alli, Jon Stead and Jay Emmanuel-Thomas are staking strong claims for the PFA Fans’ Player of the Month award for January as they target life in the higher echelons of the league.

Teenage sensation Alli already has 12 goals to his name for the MK Dons as they continue to mount a promotion bid, and Newcastle are believed to be at the head of a long queue to secure his services.

The 18-year-old, an England Under 19 international, has also been linked with Bayern Munich and Liverpool as he sets League One alight with his goalscoring prowess from midfield.

MK boss Karl Robinson would be happy to grant Alli’s wish of playing for a big club at a higher level, but only if the player is loaned back until the end of the season.

"He can be as good as he wants to be, he has got everything. He is special,” said Robinson who knows the Dons are sitting on a small fortune if they decide to sell their star turn.
