This exciting development was shared by renowned football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano through his X official page on Monday, December 16.
Romano mentioned that Alli, who has also played for Everton and Besiktas, was present at Como’s recent match where the team secured a victory against Roma.
“Dele Alli will start training with Como on the 26th, all arrangements made in coordination with the Italian club and coach Cesc Fabregas,” Romano wrote.
Como are hopeful that Dele Alli can demonstrate his fitness during this training period, which will ultimately determine whether he receives a contract offer from the club.
However, Romano cautioned that no guarantees are in place for Alli at this time, emphasizing that his future with the team will depend on his performance during the training.
Meanwhile, FC Barcelona have been dealt another setback as their young winger Lamine Yamal is currently sidelined due to injury. The club confirmed this unfortunate news in an official statement on their website on Monday.
Yamal sustained the injury while playing in Barcelona’s La Liga match against CD Leganés, which ended in a disappointing 1-0 defeat for the Blaugrana. The 17-year-old received a blow to the ankle during the game, resulting in his substitution in the 75th minute when he was replaced by teammate Gavi.
Following the match, medical tests conducted on Monday morning revealed that Yamal is suffering from a grade 1 injury to the anterior tibiofibular ligament. As a result of this injury, the young talent is expected to miss approximately three to four weeks of action, leaving coach Hansi Flick with a challenge as they navigate upcoming fixtures without him in the lineup.
