Dele Alli’s sister Barbara Johnson has pleaded with the Tottenham Hotspur star to reconsider his decision not to speak to his family, saying that they are not after his wealth or fame.

This past weekend, the attacking midfielder’s mother and father made a plea for the England star to have them back into his life, and his elder sister has followed suit with another appeal.

Writing on Instagram, Barbara Johnson said : “What a heartbreaking story, hope you read this bro.”

 “We all miss you and love you dearly, we not after your money or your fame we just want are little #Delbot back, love you lots like jelly tots”.

Dele, who lived with his father Kehinde Alli in Nigeria and United States before returning to the United Kingdom, has not seen his sister for more than two years. 

The 20-year-old was named Young Player of the Year at the 2017 London Football Awards on Thursday night.
