Everton midfielder Dele Alli has set his sights on playing in the 2026 World Cup, despite being sidelined since February 2023 due to various injury issues that have kept him out of action for over a year. In a recent interview after Everton’s 6-0 loss to Chelsea, Alli expressed his determination to return to his best form on the field and acknowledged his disappointment with his current injury situation.
Having made the move from Tottenham Hotspur to Everton in 2022, Alli has faced challenges adapting to his new club. A loan spell at Besiktas also did not yield the desired results for the midfielder. Despite these setbacks, Alli is focused on overcoming his injury issues and preparing for a potential World Cup opportunity in the coming years.
Despite not having played for an extended period, Alli is confident in his abilities and believes he can reach his full potential once he returns to action. He remains committed to his recovery and rehabilitation process and takes each day as it comes, determined to be in peak condition for his return to the field.
Alli’s primary goal is to regain his fitness and perform at the highest level possible, even though there are uncertainties surrounding his current contract situation with Everton. In their next match against Nottingham Forest, Everton will be seeking to bounce back from their recent defeat and showcase their potential under Alli’s leadership. With a renewed sense of purpose and determination, Alli is eager to make a meaningful impact on the pitch and fulfill his aspirations of representing his country on the world stage.
