While Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen scored the vital away goals, Dembele set the tempo for Spurs from midfielder and was in excellent form as he dominated the middle of the park against Juventus.

And the midfielder received an unexpected bonus as his display was watched first hand by Martinez and his assistant, according to Belgian daily Het Laatste Nieuws.
 


The midfielder has not been a regular part of the Belgium team in recent months due to injuries and only played cameos in their last two friendly games.
