the nightmare continues for Dele Alli

on

He is not the first and he should not be the last to completely miss out on a great career despite his talent. Announced as a future phenomenon of English football, Dele Alli declined over the seasons at Tottenham then at Everton and finally at Besiktas, which he joined this summer to try to revive himself. At the age of 26, the native of Milton Keynes has completely disappeared from the radar when he was a strong element of English football, even chaining selections with the Three Lions (37 selections since 2015, 3 goals) before falling completely.

So this summer, he decided to leave his comfort zone and the Premier League to join Besiktas on loan with an option to buy (7 million). On paper, this transfer seemed interesting both for the player – who was going to discover a less competitive championship than England – and for his club which was getting a player capable of performing and who was just waiting to get back on his feet. Yet 6 months after his arrival, Dele Alli still can’t do it. On the contrary. He has only played 9 small matches (for 2 goals) and does not seem to have been favored by his coach for several matches.

Besiktas still believes in him… for how long?

His new coach Senol Günes did not hesitate to castigate him recently at a press conference. “Let’s not talk about Dele Alli as a player, he is below expectations in terms of efficiency. We haven’t managed to get the best out of Dele Alli yet”. And it’s not going to work out. This Wednesday, when he started and his team was down 2-0 after 15 minutes, Dele Alli, completely transparent, was replaced in the 29th. Result, his team was completely transformed and managed to strengthen the meeting. Besiktas ended up winning 4-2 and substitute Gedson Fernandes proved decisive straight away.

A big disappointment for the club, which hoped that the long international break (with the World Cup) would allow Dele Alli to recharge his batteries and therefore to revive afterwards. According to the latest information from the Turkish press, his coach Senol Günes has not yet lost hope and still hopes to succeed in reviving his player. But the Turkish management won’t be patient forever either, and if the player fails to raise his level, he could be asked to leave Besiktas mid-season. The club will not do in tenderness since according to the media Fanatic, Dele Alli may not be on the A team list for the second half of the season, and therefore sent to reserve to force his departure. The player is warned. If he wants to stay, he will have to show something else.
