Sport nationDele Alli Nears Return to Action: Everton Update
Dele Alli, the 28-year-old attacking midfielder, is making significant progress in his rehabilitation at Everton, according to Sky Sports news editor Alan Myers. Despite his contract expiring, Alli has been utilizing Everton’s facilities to regain fitness and is nearing a return to action with the Under-21s.
Behind-the-Scenes Development
Myers revealed that things are going well for Alli behind the scenes, with the player edging closer to game time with the Under-21s. This update suggests that Everton’s decision to allow Alli to train with the club, despite not being contracted, is paying off.
Pay-as-You-Play Deal
Everton has agreed to a unique deal with Alli, where he will only receive payment once he returns to full fitness and joins the first team. This arrangement alleviates financial pressure on the club and ensures that Alli is motivated to regain his fitness.
Reviving His Career
Alli’s career has stalled in recent seasons due to fitness and form issues. However, on his day, he can still terrorize top defenses. His time at MK Dons and Tottenham Hotspur showcased his potential, and Everton hopes to revive his career.
Rustiness and Proving Fitness
Before returning to the first team, Alli needs to shake off rustiness and prove his fitness with the Under-21s. This gradual approach will help him regain match sharpness and confidence.
Alan Myers’ Update
Myers’ tweet provided optimism for Everton fans: “I believe he’s all good and is closer to having some game time (U21’s) etc only what I’ve heard.”
Sean Dyche’s Influence
With Sean Dyche at the helm, Everton may benefit from Alli’s creativity and skill. If Dyche decides to integrate Alli into the first team, the pay-as-you-play deal ensures minimal financial risk.
January Transfer Window
In other news, Alan Myers hinted that Everton might spend “big money” in the January transfer window. This could bolster the squad and provide additional support for Alli’s potential return.
Conclusion
Dele Alli’s progress at Everton is encouraging, and his potential return to action could bolster the team’s attacking options. With a pay-as-you-play deal in place, both parties are motivated to succeed.
