Everton sign Dele Alli from Tottenham
The England midfielder joins on a two-and-a-half year deal, with a fee somewhere between zero and £30m. It’s a strange agreement – Alli will cost £10m after 20 appearances, but can only make 18 league appearances this season. The eventual fee could be £30m, dependent on team and individual achievements.
The bottom line, though, is he’s an Everton player, and another new recruit on the day Frank Lampard became their manager.
My colleague Andy Hunter has a late loan deal to report: full-back Neco Williams has joined Fulham from Liverpool until the end of the season.
