[Saba Sports News] According to British media reports, Everton remains open to signing a new contract with Dele Alli. Last season, the 28-year-old Alli did not play a single game and revealed his tragic childhood experiences, including being a victim of sexual abuse. Currently, Alli is a free agent, but Everton allows him to stay with the team and train with others. In response, Everton manager Sean Dyche said, “Alli is close to regaining his fitness, but he hasn’t reached the complete level yet. Remember, he hasn’t played for a long time. The club has considered many possibilities, but the primary task is to get him back on the field, running freely, playing matches, training, etc. Let’s be patient.” Dyche also emphasized that it’s not just about regaining match fitness and training with the team, Alli needs games, so game plans must follow. When you have been absent for such a long time, you need some time to regain fitness, which may require three to four matches.
