Dele Alli gets parting shot from Besiktas chief as Everton misfit faces new uncertainty

The Besiktas club president has taken a dig at Dele Alli after confirming he won't be returning to the club next season.

Alli arrived in Turkey amid much fanfare last August, in a bid to revive his career having struggled to make an impact at Everton. But his loan spell in the Super Lig turned sour, with the former England international making just 13 appearances before returning to the UK prematurely for treatment on an injury.

And he was soon in the news for the wrong reasons, pictured with a balloon in his mouth while appearing to be surrounded by canisters of laughing gas. And whether he now remains at Goodison Park for the 2023/24 campaign remains to be seen.
