Dele Alli to France? Champions League side Lille considering move for free agent midfielder who is eyeing England return at 2026 World Cup

<p>Ligue 1 side Lille are said to be the latest club to register interest in Dele as he <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/dele-alli-update-everton-contract-injury-setback/blt1ca2d11eca3501ce" target="_blank">nears a return to action</a>. The former Spurs midfielder has been out for an extended period after picking up multiple injuries while at Everton.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>He is currently a free agent but has held talks with the Toffees about signing a new deal on Merseyside, according to the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-13952353/Dele-Alli-football-comeback-free-agent-World-Cup.html?login&amp;param_code=l1a0lls1zgvcr5h4t6ml&amp;param_state=eyJyZW1lbWJlck1lIjp0cnVlLCJyYW5kb21TdGF0ZSI6IjMwYzRmN2NmLTliN2MtNDcxMS05NGE2LTRkNjZhMzY0OTkwNCJ9&amp;param__host=www.dailymail.co.uk&amp;param_geolocation=gb&amp;base_fe_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailymail.co.uk%2F&amp;validation_fe_uri=%2Fregistration%2Fp%2Fapi%2Ffield%2Fvalidation%2F&amp;check_user_fe_uri=registration%2Fp%2Fapi%2Fuser%2Fuser_check%2F&amp;isMobile=false">Daily Mail.</a> The 28-year-old is targeting a return to the England squad for the 2026 World Cup.</p><p>Dele was once renowned as one of the best midfielders in Europe at the height of his powers. Despite not playing for over a year, he is still <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/dele-alli-approached-european-club-ex-tottenham-england-star-surprise-offer/blt574b6cd55067274e" target="_blank">gaining interest from multiple clubs</a> across the continent, which is a testament to how good he once was.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>There are still terms between Everton and Tottenham meaning that if Dele continues his career with the Toffees, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/revealed-catch-22-holding-dele-alli-back-everton-terms-tottenham-deal-ex-england-international-world-cup-2026-motivational-message-injury/blt2e4cb8a2eba82d26" target="_blank">Spurs would be owed performance and appearance-based bonuses</a> unless Everton can negotiate with Daniel Levy to remove those ties.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Dele's situation remains the same at present. He is continuing to train and build up his fitness, being careful not to suffer any <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/dele-alli-injured-again-19-months-ex-tottenham-star-slip-back-new-contract-everton/blt7164edce78c7dbf3" target="_blank">setbacks in his recovery</a>. If everything goes to plan, he will be hopeful of lining up on the pitch at some point in the 2024-25 campaign.</p>
