Everton midfielder Dele Alli has spoken out to deny claims that he has gone 'AWOL' from Besiktas.
On Wednesday afternoon quotes emerged from Besiktas manager Senol Gunes claiming that Dele had not returned to training and that he couldn't be contacted.
"Dele Alli could not come at this time. It's raining, I guess that's why he couldn't come," Gunes said. "We're trying to hear from him. We could not reach him by phone. Hopefully he didn't have an accident."
