Dele Alli's next club?! Injury-plagued ex-Tottenham & Everton midfielder spotted watching Como in Serie A action alongside Hollywood stars Keira Knightley & Michael Fassbender - as manager Cesc Fabregas makes admission on January move

Celebrity guests are – much like at Wrexham alongside Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney – a common occurrence at Stadio Sinigaglia. Como find themselves competing in the Italian top flight after securing promotion under the guidance of former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas.

Hollywood stars Knightley, Fassbender and Adrian Brody were among those in attendance for a meeting with Roma – which Como won 2-0 courtesy of two stoppage-time goals. It was, however, the presence of Dele in the crowd that got the Italian media talking.

The 37-cap England international is currently a free agent. He has been training with Everton in a bid to shake off unfortunate injury issues and regain full fitness. With no offers seemingly on the table at Goodison Park, Dele is exploring other options.

Fabregas admits there is a chance that the 28-year-old midfielder will join his ranks, telling reporters when asked about Dele’s presence in Como: “I got to know him yesterday. I don’t want to talk much about this, but perhaps there’s a chance that he will start training with us after Christmas. Let’s see. It would be to help him get in shape and nothing more. For now, we must enjoy this night. We must talk about Como, Gabrielloni and the lads. This is the most important thing.”

While Dele is a proven performer at the highest level, having graced Premier League and World Cup stages, he has not made a competitive appearance of any kind since February 2023 – during a loan spell at Besiktas – and will need to prove his worth to Fabregas and Co before any contract can be signed.
