Dele Alli’s Como move – From promising talent to disappointing career

Dele Alli is a former prospect who was destined for great things especially during his time at Tottenham. While at Spurs, he won the PFA Young Player of the Year in consecutive seasons.

He was also named in the PFA Team of the Year for three straight campaigns – 2014–15 in League One as well as in his first and second seasons in the Premier League (2015–16 & 2016–17).

However, his career hit a nose-dive ever since his memorable time at Tottenham. He joined Everton in 2022 and later went on loan to Beşiktaş.
