Dele Alli, a former midfielder for Tottenham Hotspur and Everton, has agreed to an 18-month contract with Como, a promoted Serie A team, with the possibility of an extension for an extra year, the Italian team said on Sunday.
In 194 Premier League games, the 28-year-old former England international has contributed 34 assists and 51 goals.
After eight years at Spurs, he joined Everton in January 2022, however he only played in 13 games because of frequent injuries.
Due to ongoing injury concerns, Alli last appeared for the Merseysiders in August 2022.
He was also loaned out to Turkish side Besiktas for a season after which he focused on recuperation.
“The club believes in Dele’s potential and is committed to helping him rediscover his best form.
His experience and leadership qualities will undoubtedly benefit the squad,” Como manager Cesc Fabregas said in a statement.
“The club recognises his exceptional talent and is excited to bring him into the team.
” The focus will be on providing Dele with a supportive environment where he can gradually integrate into the squad.”
Como, who are 17th in Serie A, host Udinese on Monday.
