Matt Law from The Daily Telegraph has reported that Dele Alli will join Everton on an initial free transfer, although the price could rise in the future. 

The journalist took to Twitter to claim that Dele would sign a two-and-a-half-year deal with Everton, with the Toffees paying £10m but only if/when the midfielder plays 20 games.

This comes after Fabrizio Romano broke the news that Everton had agreed a transfer with Tottenham this afternoon on deadline day, subject to Dele’s medical in the next few hours.

In his time in North London, Dele made 269 appearances for the Lilywhites, scoring 67 goals and recording 61 assists (TransferMarkt).

The midfielder will be remembered for his trademark late runs into the box under Pochettino during those back-to-back Premier League title pushes, and his role in the Champions League run in 2019.

While £10m does not sound like a lot of money for Dele Alli, the Englishman has struggled for form over the past two years and Spurs only signed him for £5m from MK Dons (BBC).

Dele Alli move to Everton from Tottenham agreed. Set to be an initial free transfer with Everton paying £10m once he has played 20 games. Two and a half year deal #efc #thfc

Spurs Web Opinion:

I was expecting around £15m for Dele but I can’t say I’m surprised by ten. If that price tag is true, I imagine it was more about getting him off the books and also giving a very well-respected servant to the club a chance to rebuild his career.
