Following unsuccessful spells at Everton and on loan at Turkish club Beşiktaş, opportunities in top European leagues seemed unlikely for 30-year-old English attacking midfielder Dele Alli. There was earlier reported interest from clubs in the lower English leagues, such as Wrexham and Birmingham, which suggested a move to such a team might be necessary for a return to the sport. The former England international has 37 caps and 3 goals for his country and is currently a free agent. His market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €1.00m.
