A wonderful finish for Premier League runners-up Spurs and a pulsating Aviva rugby union run are just for starters.

Next the cheeky chappy heads the ball in a basketball match.

And he can also be seen giving it large at mixed martial arts and boxing, where promoter Frank Warren has a word or two for him.

"Dele, get up...this is your right - get up, son," are the non-nonsense instructions from the veteran promoter.

And then come the Ashes...

Alli is batting like Joe Root as commentator Michael Vaughan acknowledges: "That's a tremendous strike."

Analyst Graeme Swann joins in the moment with the immortal line: "Hold on. Is that Dele playing in the Ashes?"

Aussie skipper Steve Smith can't resist the chance to sledge.

He pipes up with: "Dele what are you doing out here, mate. You should stick to football."

And with that the midfield wizard produces more classic dribbling action for Tottenham.

And that's it. Being Dele looks like hard work!
