Tottenham reached a new agreement with Everton over the transfer of Dele Alli this month, but what is happening with the former England midfielder in Merseyside?
Dele Alli was once seen as the next generational talent in English football, having made the leap from League One football to Premier League stardom when he joined Tottenham Hotspur.
Posting numbers that shadowed even the likes of Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard and Paul Scholes at that age, it seemed as though the sky was the limit for young Dele.
However, a drop in form coincided with Mauricio Pochettino leaving the North London club and Dele struggled to recreate the promise he showed in his early years.
He has since opened up on his off-field struggles with mental health, but is determined to work his way back to the top of the game, starting with pre-season at Everton.
BBC Sport’s Nizaar Kinsella reported earlier this month that Tottenham had come to an agreement with Everton to waive their payment terms in the original Dele Alli transfer.
This would allow Everton to take Dele on over pre-season without any financial risk, but it appears he is not yet guaranteed a spot in Sean Dyche’s 2024/25 squad.
The Athletic report that Everton remain undecided on Dele’s future and will look at him over pre-season before deciding whether to hand him a new contract and a chance next season.
If he fails to impress, Dele will have to find himself a new club this summer.
Spurs Web Opinion:
Every single Spurs fan, and every football fan in general, wants to see Dele Alli get back to his best. But he needs support every step of the way to reach that goal. I just hope he receives that support, time and patience.
