Dele Alli has lost 75 million euros in market value since the beginning of June 2019 – from 100 million to 25 million, more than almost anyone else in this period. What was once English football’s greatest hope is now looking to restart her career. The 25-year-old midfielder is moving to Everton after six and a half years at Tottenham Hotspur.
The “Toffees” who were busy on Deadline Day – coach Frank Lampard and midfielder Donny van de Beek (24; loan from Man United) had previously been signed – have given Alli a contract that runs until 2024. The deal is said to be an initially free transfer, which, according to Fabrizio Romano, can increase by bonuses on a transfer of up to 40 million euros. English media unanimously report that a first installment of 12 million euros will be due after 20 games.

The contract of the 37-time England international with “Spurs” ran until 2024. Alli, who had not been first choice for some time, was Lampard’s dream player alongside van de Beek. According to media reports, Tottenham had already given the midfielder approval for a winter change at the end of last year.
