Dele Alli Breaks Silence On ‘Missing’ Claims, Contradicts Besiktas Manager
Dele Alli has disputed claims from his manager that he has ‘gone missing’ from Besiktas training.
The former England midfielder, who has struggled since making the move to the Turkish giants, was accused of not returning to training on Wednesday by Senol Gunes.
But in a post on social media, Dele said: “Hey guys just had loads of messages so wanted to clear something up. The club gave me permission to attend a doctor’s appointment today. I’m due back in training tomorrow as normal.”
Dele was forced to issue a statement after Gunes publicly criticised the 26-year-old, suggesting he had taken an unauthorised extended absence. “We gave Dele Alli permission for a small break, he hasn’t come back yet. It’s raining, that’s probably why he didn’t come. We’re trying to find out where he is.”
The ex Tottenham star joined Besiktas on a season-long loan from Everton and hoped to rebuild his reputation away from the glare of the Premier League. But he has managed just two goals in 13 appearances and has been out of favour since the appointment of Gunes in October.
