Dele Alli and Como 1907 have mutually agreed to terminate his contract, citing the player’s desire for regular playing opportunities.
Dele Alli’s tenure at Como 1907 has come to an end after just eight months, with the club announcing a mutual agreement to terminate his contract. According to the official statement, Alli’s desire for regular playing opportunities and the club’s immediate plans not including him led to this decision.
The 29-year-old midfielder signed with Como in January on a free transfer, committing to an 18-month deal that would have kept him at the club until 2026. However, his time with Cesc Fabregas’ side was short-lived, with only one appearance against AC Milan, where he was sent off for a late tackle on Ruben Loftus-Cheek after just ten minutes on the pitch.
Alli’s limited playing time was a result of not being part of Fabregas’ plans, and the club’s decision to part ways with him was likely influenced by this factor. With the transfer window closing, both parties felt it was the right time to go their separate ways.
As a free agent, Alli is now open to exploring new opportunities. Birmingham City are currently the favorites to sign him. West Brom, Wrexham, Sheffield United and Inter Miami, where he could potentially play alongside Lionel Messi.
Alli’s departure from Como marks the end of a challenging period for the player, who has faced setbacks in his career, including struggles with mental health. His future prospects will depend on finding a club where he can secure regular playing time and regain his form.
