Bamidele Jermaine "Dele" Alli (/ˈdɛli ˈæli/ DEL-ee AL-ee;^[4] born 11 April 1996) is an English professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Serie A club Como.

Born and raised in Milton Keynes, he joined the youth system at Milton Keynes Dons aged 11 and broke into the first team five years later, during the 2012–13 season. Over the next two and a half years he made 88 official appearances for the team, scoring 24 goals. He signed for Tottenham Hotspur in February 2015 for an initial fee of £5 million, being loaned back to MK Dons for the remainder of the season. In each of his first two campaigns at Tottenham, Alli was voted the PFA Young Player of the Year and made the PFA Team of the Year. Towards the end of his time at Tottenham, Alli was plagued with bouts of poor form as well as strained relationships with managers José Mourinho and Antonio Conte, leading him to join Everton in January 2022 and later that year joining Beşiktaş on loan. Alli fell out of contract with Everton in July 2024, but continued to train and undergo physical rehabilitation with the club until January 2025 when he joined Serie A club Como.

Dele played for the England U17, U18 and U19 teams, before making his senior debut in 2015. He was selected for UEFA Euro 2016 and the 2018 FIFA World Cup, scoring in the latter and helping England to the semi-finals.

Club career

[edit]

Milton Keynes Dons

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Dele joined the youth system at Milton Keynes Dons when he was 11 years old after playing for City Colts.^[5] He made his debut for the first team as a sixteen-year-old on 2 November 2012, coming on as a 64th-minute substitute for Jay O'Shea in a 0–0 draw with Southern Football League club Cambridge City in the FA Cup first round at Milton Road.^[6] His first touch in professional football was a back-heeled pass.^[5] His first goal came in the replay against Cambridge eleven days later, where he scored in a 6–1 win at Stadium MK on his first start.^[7] He made his league debut in a 2–3 defeat to Coventry City at home on 29 December, where he played 71 minutes before being replaced by Zeli Ismail.^[8] His only other league appearance in the 2012–13 Football League One season, came as a second-half substitute for Patrick Bamford in the last match of the season, a 2–0 win over Stevenage at Broadhall Way.^[9]

2013–14 season

[edit]

The 2013–14 season saw Alli break into the MK Dons first team on a regular basis. He started the Dons' first league match of the season, a 0–0 draw away at Shrewsbury Town.^[10] In his first Football League Trophy appearance, Alli scored to help MK Dons beat Northampton Town 2–0 and thus progress to the second round of the tournament.^[11] On 28 September, Alli scored his first professional league goal in a 4–1 win against Stevenage.^[12] After injury setbacks in late 2013, Alli subsequently established himself as a first-choice player in 2014. He scored the opening goal in the 3–2 win over Shrewsbury Town at Stadium MK on 11 January, with a header from Stephen Gleeson's pinpoint pass.^[13]

On 11 March 2014, against Notts County at Meadow Lane, aged 17 years and 11 months old, Alli scored a hat-trick to guide the Dons to a 3–1 victory.^[14] His next and final goal of the 2013–14 season, came on 5 April against Coventry City at the Sixfields Stadium; Alli struck a volley from 25 yards out as MK Dons defeated Coventry 2–1.^[15] He made 37 appearances in all competitions during the 2013–14 season, scoring seven times, with 33 appearances and six goals in the league.

2014–15 season

[edit]

With the departure of Gleeson to Birmingham City in June 2014,^[16] Alli became the first-choice central midfield partner to Darren Potter. He started the season brightly, playing the first league match of the season as the Dons overcame a 2–0 deficit to defeat Gillingham, 4–2.^[17] He then helped the team to a 3–1 win over arch-enemies, AFC Wimbledon, in the League Cup first round.^[18] His first goal of the 2014–15 season came in the first away league match, a 3–2 defeat to Peterborough United, where he scored a tap-in from Will Grigg's deflected shot.^[19]

On 26 August, Alli played the full 90 minutes in the League Cup second round as MK Dons recorded a historic 4–0 win over Manchester United.^[20] It was reported that numerous scouts from top clubs across Europe attended the match to watch him play, including representatives from Bayern Munich and Liverpool.^[5]^[21] In the match after the 4–0 League Cup win over Manchester United, Alli continued his rich vein of form with a goal curled in from the edge of the box in a 2–0 win over Crawley Town.^[22] After the international break, Alli played 77 minutes in the 5–3 win against Barnsley, assisting the Dons second goal and scoring their third goal himself with a chip over the Barnsley goalkeeper.^[23] He was chosen as the Football League Young Player of the Month for August.^[5]

On 18 September, Alli extended his contract with MK Dons until June 2017.^[24] Two days later, in a match against Crewe Alexandra, he scored a hat-trick and achieved one assist in what turned out to be a 6–1 victory for the Dons. It was the second hat-trick of his career and the first he achieved at home, which also led to him winning the Man of the Match award.^[25]

Tottenham Hotspur

[edit]

On 2 February 2015, Alli signed for Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur in the last hours of the mid-season transfer window on a five-and-a-half-year deal for an initial fee of £5 million.^[26]

Loan to Milton Keynes Dons

[edit]

Following his transfer to Tottenham Hotspur, Alli was immediately loaned back to MK Dons for the remainder of the 2014–15 season.^[26] On 19 April, he was chosen as the Young Player of the Year at the Football League Awards.^[27] The season ended on 3 May with Milton Keynes Dons promoted automatically to the Championship as runners-up behind Bristol City, after a 5–1 home win over relegated Yeovil Town.^[28]

2015–16 season

[edit]

On 8 August 2015, Alli made his Tottenham debut against Manchester United in the Premier League as a substitute in a 1–0 defeat away at Old Trafford, playing the last 13 minutes in place of Eric Dier.^[29] Two weeks later, he scored his first goal for the club after coming on for Christian Eriksen in the 1–1 draw against Leicester City.^[30]

On 13 September, Alli made his first start for Tottenham in a 1–0 win against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.^[31] On 2 November, he started and scored the second goal in an eventual 3–1 win over Aston Villa.^[32] Six days later he started his first North London Derby alongside fellow England youngster Dier in central midfield, and was awarded Man of the Match in the 1–1 draw between rivals Arsenal and Tottenham.^[33] On 5 December 2015, he scored his third goal for Tottenham in the 2015–16 campaign in a 1–1 draw against West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns.^[34]

Following an impressive start to his Premier League career scoring five goals and making three assists in his first 18 league matches, he was rewarded with a new long-term contract until 2021 on 12 January.^[35] Eleven days later he scored a 25-yard volley in a 3–1 win at Crystal Palace; BBC Sport pundit and former Spurs player Garth Crooks wrote "I've seen some glorious goals scored in my time watching football matches but I doubt whether I will see a goal scored with such individual flair, and by a 19-year-old, as Dele Alli's goal at Selhurst Park – it was sheer class".^[36] On 13 April, he was named on the six-man shortlist for 2015–16's PFA Young Player of the Year.^[37]

On 18 April 2016, Alli scored his first brace for Tottenham in a 0–4 away win at Stoke City,^[38] reaching ten goals in his debut Premier League season.^[39] He was voted the season's PFA Young Player of the Year on 24 April.^[40] On 28 April, Alli was banned by the Football Association for three matches, effectively ending his Premier League season, for an off-the-ball incident against West Bromwich Albion in which he punched midfielder Claudio Yacob in the stomach. He later apologised for the incident on Twitter, stating, "Gutted that my season is over. Shouldn't have reacted like I did. Will learn from this and come back stronger."^[41]

2016–17 season

[edit]

Ahead of the season, Alli changed his kit name to Dele, saying that he had "no connection" to his legal surname due to his separation from his mother.^[42] His first goal of the season came in a 4–0 win against Stoke City on 10 September 2016.^[43] Four days later, he made his UEFA Champions League debut in a 1–2 loss to AS Monaco at Wembley Stadium.^[44] His first Champions League goal came against CSKA Moscow at the same stadium on 7 December 2016.^[45] Between 18 December 2016 and 21 January 2017, Alli scored eight goals in six league matches, earning the award of Premier League Player of the Month award for January 2017. This included three consecutive braces against Southampton, Watford and Chelsea.^[46]

On 23 February, Alli received his first red card for a dangerous tackle on Brecht Dejaegere in Tottenham's UEFA Europa League draw with K.A.A. Gent which saw Spurs eliminated at the Round of 32 stage of the competition.^[47] On 20 April 2017, Alli was again named in the PFA Team of the Year,^[48] having been included in the League One selection for 2015^[49] and the Premier League selection in 2016.^[50] On 23 April, he was named the PFA Young Player of the Year,^[51] the day after scoring in Tottenham's 4–2 FA Cup semi-final loss to rivals Chelsea at Wembley Stadium.^[52]

2017–18 season

[edit]

Alli scored his first goal of the season in the opening game of the 2017–18 season away at Newcastle that finished in a 2–0 win.^[53] However, he was criticised for his inconsistency this season, failing to perform as well as the previous season.^[54]^[55] On 1 April 2018, Alli scored twice in the away fixture against Chelsea, helping Tottenham win 3–1, which was their first win in 28 years at Stamford Bridge.^[56]

2018–19 season

[edit]

On 11 August 2018, Alli scored his first goal of the season, scoring the winning goal in the opening league match against Newcastle United.^[57]

On 26 September, Alli was named as captain for Tottenham's EFL Cup third round tie with Watford. The tie, played at Stadium MK due to delays in the completion of Tottenham's new stadium, marked Alli's return to the home ground of his boyhood club Milton Keynes Dons, and the return to his home town of Milton Keynes for the first time as a Tottenham player. The tie finished 2–2, with Alli scoring both a penalty in normal time and the winning penalty in a deciding penalty shoot-out.^[58]

In October 2018, Alli signed a new six-year deal at Tottenham, which would keep him at the club until 2024.^[59] He also scored in the 3–1 home win against Chelsea, which was his sixth goal in five games against Chelsea, and the first defeat for Chelsea in the Premier League this season.^[60] In January 2019, he was ruled out until March with a hamstring injury.^[61]

2019–20 season

[edit]

Alli missed the start of the season due to a hamstring injury.^[62] He returned to the team in the North London Derby on 1 September 2019, coming on as a substitute.^[63] He scored his first goal of the season in the match against Watford, drawing 1–1.^[64] In November 2019, Mauricio Pochettino was dismissed by the club to be replaced by José Mourinho. Mourinho played Alli as an attacking player just behind Harry Kane, reverting to his earlier position after playing in a deeper midfield role the previous two years. According to Mourinho, "Dele is not a midfield player".^[65]^[66] The attacking role gave Alli greater freedom to score, and he scored three goals in his first three games under Mourinho, two of which came in the game against Bournemouth.^[67]

In February 2020, Alli posted a video on his Snapchat account in which he appeared to mock an Asian man while joking about the COVID-19 outbreak.^[68] The video showed Alli wearing a face mask at Heathrow Airport while waiting for his flight to Dubai, before the camera moved to show a man of Asian appearance before zooming in on a bottle of antiseptic handwash, seemingly suggesting the Asian man in the terminal could be infected with the virus. The video was captioned: "The virus gunna have to be faster than that to catch me."^[69] In June 2020, Alli was found guilty of an "aggravated breach" of the FA rule that includes a reference to race, colour, ethnic origin and/or nationality, and was judged to have used an "unacceptable racist stereotype" by the regulatory commission.^[70] Alli was suspended in June 2020 for one match by the Football Association, making him ineligible for Tottenham Hotspur's Premier League game at home against Manchester United on 19 June. He was also fined £50,000 and ordered to undertake an education course.^[68]

2020–21 season

[edit]

In the first half of 2020–21 season, Alli was reportedly out of favour with Mourinho, making few starts in games.^[71]^[72]^[73] Most of his starts in games were in the UEFA Europa League, and he scored his first goal of the season in the Europa League play-off match against Maccabi Haifa on 1 October 2020 to cap a 7–2 win for Tottenham.^[74] In the Europa last-32 match against Wolfsberg on 24 February 2021, he scored a notable goal with a bicycle kick, starting a 4–0 rout with two further assists.^[75]^[76] He made his first start in six months in the Premier League on 4 March, in the match against Fulham that ended in a 1–0 win when his shot at goal was deflected off a defender for an own-goal.^[77] He started seven Premier League games this season.^[78]

2021–22 season

[edit]

On 22 August 2021, Alli scored his first goal of the season, scoring the only goal in a 1–0 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers. This was Alli's first Premier League goal since March 2020.^[79] He continued to struggle to regain his form. Manager Nuno Espírito Santo tried to bring him back into the squad,^[80] which proved short-lived as Nuno was replaced by Antonio Conte in early November. Dele failed to find a role under the new manager,^[81] and became a fringe player in Conte's plan for Tottenham.^[82] After starting only eight league games (two under Conte) in the 2021–22 campaign, Alli was made available for transfer by Tottenham in the January 2022 window.^[78]

Everton

[edit]

Alli moved to fellow Premier League side Everton on 31 January 2022 on an initial free transfer,^[83] which could rise to £40 million if certain performance benchmarks are met. The first £10 million would be due after 20 appearances for Everton.^[84] He signed a two-and-a-half-year contract, running until the end of the 2023–24 season. Upon signing for the club, Alli cited the opportunity to work under new manager Frank Lampard as a major reason for joining Everton.^[85] He made his debut on 8 February as a late substitute in a 3–1 loss against Newcastle United.^[86] Despite a notable cameo in Everton's 3-2 comeback win over Cryrtal Palace^[87]^[88] he failed to make an impact at Everton, making 11 appearances and only 1 start in the 2021–22 season, and two further appearances in the 2022–23 season. He did not score or register an assist in 13 games.^[89]

Loan to Beşiktaş

[edit]

On 25 August 2022, Alli joined Turkish team Beşiktaş on loan for the remainder of the 2022–23 season with an option to buy for the Turkish club.^[90] He scored his first goal in over a year in his second appearance for the club, helping the club win 3–2 against Ankaragücü on 4 September 2022.^[91]^[92] When Şenol Güneş took over as new head coach on 28 October, he stated that Alli was "below expectations in terms of efficiency," pointing to his struggles for Beşiktaş.^[93] Alli did not play any games for Beşiktaş after 26 February 2023, and with only two goals scored in 13 games playing for the team, he returned to Everton in April for an assessment of a hip injury he picked up, while Beşiktaş sought to cancel his season-long loan.^[94]^[95]

Return to Everton from loan

[edit]

By April 2024, Alli had not played for Everton in the 2023–24 season after sustaining a groin injury at the end of 2023.^[96]^[97]

While Alli's contract with Everton expired at the end of June 2024, he continued to train at the club and did rehabilitation work with medical staff.^[98]

Como

[edit]

On 19 January 2025, Alli joined Italian Serie A club Como on a free transfer on an 18-month deal until the end of the 2025–26 season.^[99]

While Como manager Cesc Fàbregas told reporters on 19 February that Dele may not make his debut for the club until later in the season or even not until the 2025–26 season, saying "He's working off the pitch at the moment. I don't want to put extra pressure on him, he hasn't played for months...We need patience to see him back on the pitch: please, let's stay calm. The last few months will be used to get back in shape for next season",^[100] Dele was included in his first matchday squad for Como as an unused substitute for a 2–1 Serie A loss to AS Roma on 2 March.^[101]

On 15 March 2025, Dele made his debut for Como against AC Milan in the league, marking his first match since February 2023. However, his return to the pitch was brief, as he came on as a substitute for Lucas Da Cunha in the 81st minute, and was sent off ten minutes later for a clumsy challenge on fellow Englishman Ruben Loftus-Cheek after a VAR check upgraded his initial yellow card.^[102]

International career

[edit]

Alli has made several appearances at U17 and U18 levels for England.^[103] On 27 August 2014, Alli was called up to the England U19 squad following an impressive start to the campaign.^[104] He made his debut for England U19 in the 1–1 draw against Germany U19. In the match, Alli assisted the opening goal feeding a through ball to Bradley Fewster who gave England a 1–0 lead.^[105]

In February 2015, it was reported that John Fashanu would try to convince Alli to play for Nigeria.^[106] However, on 1 October of that year, he was included in Roy Hodgson's England squad for the final UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying matches against Estonia and Lithuania.^[107] He made his debut against the former on 9 October, coming on as a late substitute for Ross Barkley in a 2–0 win.^[108]

On 17 November 2015, Alli made his first start for the England senior team, scoring the opening goal from a long range shot to beat Spurs teammate, goalkeeper Hugo Lloris in a 2–0 win against France at Wembley Stadium.^[109] He was again named in the starting line-up for England's friendly match against world champions Germany on 26 March 2016. Alli was named man of the match by the BBC Sport as England recovered from 0–2 down to win 3–2 at the Berlin Olympiastadion.^[110]

Alli was selected for the 23-man England squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.^[111] On 7 July, Alli scored the second goal of the game in a 2–0 win over Sweden in the quarter-finals of the competition, as England reached the semi-finals for the first time in 28 years.^[112] Alli played for England in the semi-final match against Croatia, winning a free-kick through which England took the lead, though they eventually lost 2–1 following extra-time.^[113]

In October 2019, he was left out of the England squad for forthcoming Euro 2020 qualifying matches.^[114]

Player profile

[edit]

Style of play

[edit]

Early in his career, Alli was widely considered one of the best young midfielders of his generation,^[115]^[116]^[117] and won PFA Young Player of the Year two years running.^[118] He was praised for his all-round skillset and his goalscoring prowess, particularly when playing as a second striker.^[119] Alli's manager at the time, Mauricio Pochettino, said in 2017: "In the box, he looks like a striker, and outside the box, he plays like a midfielder." Rafael van der Vaart said of Alli that he is "fast, fluid and has a great skill set",^[120] while future Everton manager Frank Lampard praised Alli's intelligence in his ability "to get into the box without being marked".^[121] He has, however, been widely accused of diving, and has received bookings for simulation.^[122]^[123]^[124]^[125]^[126]

Decline

[edit]

In 2018, Alli was considered the world's most expensive midfielder from a transfer value perspective by the CIES;^[127] his form faded, however, in subsequent seasons, resulting in him losing his place in the England team in 2019 and becoming a fringe player for Spurs in the following years.^[128] In 2022, after Alli was loaned to Beşiktaş from Everton, Phil McNulty described his career trajectory as a "dramatic decline... from the golden boy of English football to lost talent".^[129]

Personal life

[edit]

Alli was born in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire,^[130] to a Yoruba Nigerian father, Kehinde,^[131] and an English mother, Denise. Kehinde moved to the United States a week after Alli's birth.^[132] He was initially brought up by his mother, who suffered from alcohol problems.^[132]^[133] At the age of nine, he moved to Nigeria with his father, where he spent two years in an international school, before returning to Milton Keynes to live with his mother.^[134] Alli went to Stantonbury Campus^[135] and The Radcliffe School in Wolverton.^[136]

At the age of 13, he moved into the family home of Alan and Sally Hickford, parents of another footballer from MK Dons's youth system and whom he refers to as his "adoptive parents", although he was never legally adopted by them.^[132]^[137] In the summer of 2016, Alli announced that he would stop having his surname on match shirts, instead opting for "Dele", since he felt no connection with his biological father's family.^[42]^[138]

Alli was a Liverpool fan growing up, with Steven Gerrard his childhood idol,^[5] and saw Gerrard and Frank Lampard as good role models on how they act as professionals.^[135] He is also a fan of British hip hop music, which led rapper Cadet to release a single, "Advice", referencing the footballer.^[139]

On 13 May 2020, Alli was held at knifepoint during a burglary by two men who broke into his house in north London. He was punched and suffered minor facial injuries. The burglars stole various pieces of jewellery, including watches.^[140]

Alli has been in a relationship with model Cindy Kimberly publicly since June 2022.^[141]

In July 2023, during an interview for Gary Neville's podcast The Overlap, Alli revealed that he had been sexually abused at the age of six, and then started dealing drugs aged eight; he also opened up about having spent a six-week spell in rehab following the end of his loan at Beşiktaş, because of a sleeping pill addiction and mental health issues.^[133]^[138]
