Transfer round-up; Tottenham and Everton agreement

Dele Alli could still play Premier League football before the end of the year despite Everton submitting their squad until January.

The former England international remains a free agent following the expiry of his Toffees contract but is still training with the club.

The 28-year-old hasn’t been registered at Goodison Park since June but has been offered the opportunity to keep proving his fitness.

Dele has not played competitive football since a 0-0 draw against Antalyaspor in February 2023 while on loan at Besiktas.

The 37-cap England international’s last appearance for Everton dates back even further to August 2022.

That was his 13th and final outing for the Toffees since arriving from Tottenham eight months prior due to injuries and off-field issues.

Dele detailed his inspirational comeback from childhood trauma that curtailed his career during an emotional interview in July 2023.

Thankfully for all involved, the attacking midfielder has been on the road to both a physical and mental recovery this year.

He can even still feature for Everton before January 2025 due to a special deadline day loophole.
