Dele Alli
When Dele Alli landed in Istanbul on Wednesday to finalize his transfer to Besiktas, he was greeted warmly by hundreds of supporters. The scenes from last night are displayed below.
In an effort to jumpstart his career, Dele Alli the 26-year-old midfielder from Everton will join the Turkish Super League team on a season-long loan with the option to purchase on Thursday. The former England international, who joined the Toffees from Spurs in January, is anxious for more playing time after seeing only one start in 13 games.
In his seven months at Goodison Park, he has yet to score or provide an assist in the league, but he will be looking to find some form in the upcoming months. In reality, the former Spurs midfielder was greeted warmly by hundreds of fans on Wednesday night at Istanbul’s Ataturk Airport.
Amazingly, Besiktas supporters welcomed Dele Alli
After a hype man hyped up the audience, Alli, who was sporting a Besiktas Scarf scarf, even started a few chants. Alli joined Everton in January in a deal that, depending on performance bonuses, could have cost up to £40 million.
Since the player has only made 13 games for the struggling Premier League team, it is thought that the first £10 million was supposed to be paid following his 20th appearance for the Toffees. To reach the heights of what was perhaps his best season in 2016–17, Alli has had difficulty.
He swiftly established himself as a first-team regular under Mauricio Pochettino after moving to Spurs from MK Dons in 2015, winning the PFA Young Player of the Year award in each of his first two seasons in North London. In 2015, he made his England debut. He went on to win 37 caps for the Three Lions.
