Dele Alli could be on his way out of Goodison Park. He has emerged as a shock target for Turkish side Besiktas, with the struggling player just seven appearances away from triggering a clause that would see Everton have to pay Tottenham £10m.
We understand that Besiktas are pushing to sign the former Tottenham Hotspur player on loan or on a permanent basis.
Dele wants game time as priority and a move to Turkey looks possible for a player who is now a shadow of himself.
He rose spectacularly under Mauricio Pochettino at Tottenham after joining from MK Dons for an initial £5m with a number of individual honours from his Football League days to his name that underlined his potential.
He thrived initially in central midfield and then later playing off Harry Kane, enjoying the licence to get into attacking positions and plunder goals.
Two years running he was named PFA Young player of the year in 2016 and 2017 and the inevitable England career unfolded too with a full debut wonder-goal against France – and Spurs teammate Hugo Lloris – and key role in the 2018 World Cup among the highlights.
Meanwhile, Everton are working to complete Gana Gueye deal after long negotiations with PSG.
