Friends of Dele Alli’s PREMIER League have devised a plan to make their stolen watches too hot for them not to be sold.
Three prized watches worth at least £ 350,000 were taken in a terrifying raid on the £ 2million home of the Ace of England, as revealed exclusively in the Sun yesterday.
Dele, 24, has distributed details of his makes and models.
Footie’s friends have said they will alert their watch sellers and let them know if anyone offers anything suspicious.
A source said: “These thieves may think they have won the jackpot by stealing these watches, but they are going to face real trouble collecting them.”
“Footballers use a handful of dealers and none will touch a stolen watch because they know it could cause serious problems in the future.
“It is not unusual for police officers in Dubai and Italy to demand to see the watch papers when passengers pass through security.
Can you imagine if a watch stolen in a violent robbery ends up on the wrist of a player who is later arrested?
“Dele is well connected through the England team and meets players in Manchester, Newcastle, Liverpool and London, where all the major distributors are.
“These dealers know that if they accidentally bought a watch that turned out to be one of Dele’s, they would never sell to a footballer again.”
The prize-winning pieces are a £ 150,000 Richard Mille 11-03, a £ 150,000 Nautilus Patek Philippe 5980 and a £ 50,000 Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph.
Dele was hit in the face by two thieves armed with knives who broke into his north London house at 12:30 on Wednesday morning.
He had been playing pool with his girlfriend Ruby and his brother Harry.
Dele was seen driving from a training session yesterday, while Ruby was also behind the wheel of a car after a brief trip from her closed home.
After the raid in the early hours of Wednesday, Tottenham’s midfield ace tweeted: “Thanks for all the messages.
“Horrible experience, but we are all fine now.
“I appreciate the support.”
Known officers are investigating.
In March, a machete gang attacked Dele’s teammate Jan Vertonghen’s home while playing for the Spurs in Germany.
Her young family was traumatized by the terrible experience.
Crystal Palace defender Mamadou Sakho lost items worth more than £ 500,000 when his London home was raided in January.
Arsenal duo Mesut Özil and Sead Kolašinac were attacked by moped thieves armed with their watches in North London.
But they fought against them and clung to their possessions.
There I had a guard

A SECURITY guard was in a shack in front of Dele Alli’s house as robbers entered from the back, it was revealed yesterday.
The director of a local security company said the employee was hired by Alli, 24, to protect his Herts mansion.
The Spurs’ stars are feared to be under attack after Jan Vertonghen was robbed in March. Former Met boss Barry Phillips said criminals may be following them from training camp.
