Dele Alli’s “complicated scenario” at Everton has been revealed, and it seems doubtful that he will play again for the Toffees.
Sean Dyche’s most recent injury update suggested that Dele, who is recovering from surgery for a persistent groin ailment, is making “progress” in terms of fitness. Some interpreted this as a hint that the 27-year-old could feature in matchday plans before the 2023-24 season ends.
Dele, on the other hand, has not played a competitive game since February 2023, during a miserable loan spell at Turkish club Besiktas, and is poised to leave Everton this summer without adding to his 13 appearances.
Dr Rajpal Brar, an expert in physical rehabilitation and sports science, informed Goodison News about Dele’s difficulties in returning to the pitch: “Based on what Dyche has said and recent reports, progress here could just be that he is reacting well to physiotherapy, no matter how low or high the intensity. Given how long he’s been out and how conservative the club has been with him, I’d be very shocked if he returns this season. It is a tricky situation, and his lack of match fitness has not helped matters.”
In 2024, Dele will face yet another critical career decision. After facing troubles on and off the field of late, the former England international faces a significant decision on what he does next, with it claimed that he may have to drop down a division or two in order to rekindle a spark and recover lost form.
