Dele Alli Set for Behind-Closed-Doors Matches to Assess Fitness for Everton
Trials to Determine Future at Club
Everton to Host Games to Evaluate Alli's Recovery
Everton are planning to arrange several behind-closed-doors matches so they can test Dele Alli's fitness, according to The Guardian. The 28-year-old is currently training with the club as he recovers from a long-term thigh injury.
Everton are considering offering Alli a contract, but they want to see how he performs in match situations before making a decision. The behind-closed-doors matches will give Alli the opportunity to demonstrate his fitness and sharpness.
Alli has been a free agent since his contract with Everton expired at the end of last month. He has been linked with a move to several clubs, but it is unclear where his future lies.
If Alli impresses in the behind-closed-doors matches, he could be offered a contract by Everton. However, if he fails to perform, he could be forced to look for another club.
Alli has had a difficult season, having been out injured for much of the campaign. He has made just one appearance for Everton this season, playing 45 minutes in the FA Cup third round defeat to Manchester United in January.
Alli will be hoping to impress in the behind-closed-doors matches and earn a contract with Everton. The club are in need of a creative midfielder, and Alli could be the man to fill that role.
