- อดีต-อังกฤษ international is a free agent again
- Ballon d’Or winner parts of Swans’ ownership team
- Talks mooted regarding surprising switch to เวลส์
Ex-England international Dele, who has struggled since bidding farewell to north London in 2022, finds himself in the free agent pool once again. He first hit that market after seeing his deal at เอฟเวอร์ตัน run down.
A fresh start was sought when heading to อิตาลี, with Cesc Fabregas inviting the 29-year-old midfielder to join the ranks at Como. Another disastrous spell was endured there, which delivered just one substitute appearance – with that outing lasting less than 10 minutes after a red card was picked up against เอซี มิลาน.
Said appearance is the only one that Dele has made since February 2023. He is, however, seeing a return to British football mooted – potentially in the แชมเปี้ยนชิพ, กับ เบอร์มิงแฮม ruling themselves out of the running there.
เรอัลมาดริด legend Modric, who is now at AC Milan, could aid efforts to get a deal done as the Ballon d’Or winner is part of the ownership group at สวอนซี. He has vowed to use his experience to help “build an exciting future”.
Discussing Dele on ทอล์คสปอร์ต Ben Jacobs said: “I think Swansea City is going to be really interesting because Luka Modric is now part of that ownership group and from what I’m told he is having conversations with slightly older players and free agents to try and lure them over there.
“It wouldn’t at all surprise me from what I hear if Swansea City and Dele Alli becomes a thing over the next few weeks. Dele Alli won’t get an opportunity in my ความคิดเห็น in a big-five league after it didn’t work out at Como but maybe a Championship club on a short-term deal.”
Despite his difficulties, Dele is not ready to give up yet. He continues to train in a bid to keep himself sharp, with it possible that he could be added to an EFL squad somewhere outside of the summer and winter transfer windows.
