After hearing of Dele Alli’s transfer to Tottenham, Everton executives decided on a new position.
Everton officials are reportedly determined to avoid paying the agreed £10 million to Tottenham for the Dele Alli deal due to their recent financial struggles, as per the Express.
The decision comes in light of Everton’s financial constraints, with those in
charge at Goodison Park reluctant to fulfill the additional payment stipulated in Alli’s transfer agreement.
This development follows recent concerns regarding Alli’s fitness, with speculation suggesting that his recurring injury issues could potentially halt his playing career altogether.
The initial agreement between Everton and Tottenham included a clause entailing an extra £10 million transfer fee once Alli reaches 20 games played for Everton.
However, it appears that Daniel Levy, Tottenham’s chairman, may miss out on this significant payout.
Despite hopes for Alli’s return to Everton, his recent injury
setback serves as another setback for the midfielder.
Tottenham has been kept informed of his injury status, according to Sean Dyche,
as they await the fulfillment of the transfer condition, with Alli currently seven
games away from reaching the agreed threshold.
This situation implies that any reluctance on Everton’s part to field Alli may
be met with opposition from Tottenham, as they monitor his progress closely,
holding onto the possibility of securing the £10 million bonus.
However, given Alli’s contract expiring at the end of the season and his likelihood of not
meeting the required appearances under Dyche, it appears increasingly improbable that the conditions for the
additional payment will be met.
