Son Heung-min’s best friend, who sweated in invincibility with the dream of his last revival, is laughing again at his injury.
It was reported that Dele Alli, one of the main players in Tottenham’s new heyday in the late 2010s, was injured during training.
The Bobble, a media outlet that deals with the news of the Everton club in the English Premier League, said on the 26th that “Delle injured his hamstring (back muscle of his thigh) while training.”
Ali played for Everton until last season. He was out of competition and had to go on loan at Besiktash in Turkiye. Eventually, he became invincible at the end of his contract last summer, and he has been struggling for the last time since September to visit the Everton training site again.
However, with the news of the injury, another contract with professional clubs such as Everton has faced difficulties.
Ali was also rumored to enter Italy’s Serie A last fall.
Nicoló Skira, an Italian journalist specializing in the transfer market, said in late September that Genoa had requested information on Ali and was keeping an eye on him. Skira informed that Genoa is looking into things to confirm his free agent status. Citing his remarks, the British media also reported Ali’s chances of entering Italy.
However, no further news has been reported since then. Ali continues to be a trainee at Everton.
Given that invincible players can join regardless of the transfer market deadline, the fact that no club is looking for Ali is evidence that his player’s life is gradually dying out.
Since joining Tottenham in 2015, Ali has grown into a top player under the guidance of Mauricio Pochettino. He won the PFA Young Player of the Year award twice in a row and has emerged as a rising star to lead England’s future by scoring 32 goals in two seasons even though he was a midfielder.
He also opened Tottenham’s heyday by forming a DESK line with Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Christian Eriksen.
During the 2016-2017 season, he peaked as a “middle-rider.” With his genius, strong kick, and outstanding goal-scoring ability, he recorded 18 goals and nine assists in 37 matches in the league. Considering that he was a central midfielder, he was an outstanding striker. Thanks to Ali’s performance, Tottenham won the runner-up prize in the Premier League.
He played in the 2018 Russia World Cup and contributed to Tottenham’s runner-up finish in the UEFA Champions League in the 2018-2019 season.
However, Ali, who has been showing ups and downs in his performance since then, has collapsed sharply.
In the 2019-2020 season, when Jose Mourinho was appointed, he scored eight goals and four assists in the Premier League, which fell short of expectations. Mourinho was even angry, asking, “Where the hell is Delle that I know?” He was completely pushed out of the competition to become a starting member from the 2020-2021 season and moved to Everton in the winter of the 2021-2022 season.
Since then, he has experienced turbulence including loan with the Turkiye team, but failed to rebound. In the end, he became invincible.
Ali has recently been suffering from 조이카지노 and downs related to soccer, but he was supported by many soccer players, including Son Heung-min, when he revealed his unfortunate family history last year.
Ali, who was interviewed by English legend Gary Neville at the time, said, “I was sexually harassed by my mom’s friend when I was 6, and she was an alcoholic,” adding, “I started smoking at the age of 7 and sold drugs at the age of 8.”
“I was sent to Africa to stay with my father, but he disappeared and came back after six months,” he said. “I was adopted when I was 12, and I shouldn’t want more than my new family did for me, but I couldn’t open my heart and always had to pretend to be a good child because I could be abandoned at any time.”
Sympathy for him increased as his past wrongdoings were revealed. “I learned that I needed treatment when I returned from Turkiye. I decided to go to a rehabilitation facility to treat my mental health, addiction and trauma as I was mentally ill,” Ali said, vowing to work hard to recover mentally.
Ali, who played 13 games for Everton last season, has been struggling to re-sign with Everton, but no news has been heard and only injuries have been reported.
