Everton flop Dele Alli has reportedly been kicked out of the Besiktas matchday squad and instructed to watch from the stands for the rest of the season.
Alli, 26, joined the Turkish Super Lig side on loan in August of last year.
The midfielder was eager to show himself and appeared to be enjoying his time overseas at first.
In September, he scored his first goal in over a year in his second outing for the club, a 3-2 win over Ankaragucu.
But, it appears that they will not exercise their option to buy him this summer when his contract expires at the conclusion of the season.
According to Takvim, Besiktas manager Senol Gunes has suspended him from the first-team squad with immediate effect.
According to the source, he is anticipated to watch from the stands until he returns to his original club in a few months.
Gunes has been irritated with Alli’s ineffective performances, believing that he does not contribute enough to games.
He has also been irritated by his poor attitude in training, a charge that has followed him for some time.
In recent months, the 70-year-old has repeatedly called Alli out on his behavior.
And Alli has been banned from The Black Eagles’ first-team group ahead of Saturday’s match.
Questioned about Alli’s continued absence, an honest Gunes said: “Dele Alli didn’t add the efficiency we thought he would.
“He was doing positive things in the last two friendly matches.
“He has problems in giving assists and scoring goals.
“Whether he plays well or badly, he is a player who is likely to leave at the end of the season.”
Throughout his seven years at Tottenham Hotspur, Alli made over 250 games and earned 37 caps for England.
And his old MK Dons manager, Karl Robinson, would love for him to come to England this summer.
“If he was back over here, he would smile again, he just loves playing football,” he said during a recent appearance on the No Tippy Tappy Football podcast.
“I think the punditry here has had a massive impact on him. He got sent off once for punching a West Brom player during a game, and everyone was saying he was doing silly things, and people tried to control him and round him off.
“When he was on little money at MK and Tottenham and overachieving, compared to when he was earning what his talent deserved, there became a different level of expectation, and people judged him in a completely different way even though it’s the exact same person playing the exact same way.
“His first goal for England against France was a worldie, and he scored 50 Premier League goals quicker than Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard. I spoke to him to see if he was okay after the earthquake in Turkey, and he was excited about the summer and where he goes [from Everton].”
