Tottenham star Dele Alli confirms boohooMAN clothing collaboration

Dele Alli has confirmed his collaboration with clothing brand boohooMAN as the England star makes his first foray into the fashion world.

Sportsmail exclusively revealed last week that Alli had agreed to launch his own clothing range with the British-based brand.

'I was extremely excited when boohooMAN approached me to collaborate,' said Alli in confirming his deal with boohooMAN.

'Fashion has always been an interest of mine and it was great to be able to play a part in the design process. I'm really looking forward for everyone to see the collection.'

The Tottenham midfielder is already one of Europe's most recognisable players thanks to his exploits for Spurs and England over the past three years.

boohooMAN have partnerships with a host of leading figures in popular culture, like US rapper French Montana. But the deal with Alli is the UK-based firm's first with a footballer.

It will see Alli release his own range of fashion wear and forms part of a strategy to enhance Alli's profile away from the field.

Alli will officially launch his fashion range at a central London venue on Thursday.
