"He likes the idea" - Transfer insider drops fresh Alli and Lampard claim at EFC

Dele Alli likes the idea of reviving his career under Frank Lampard at Everton, says journalist Dean Jones.

The 25-year-old joined the Toffees on deadline day and will be hoping he can get back to his best at Goodison Park after a difficult couple of years at Tottenham.

Everton confirmed the signing of Alli from Tottenham just after deadline day, bringing the attacking midfielder in on a two-and-a-half-year deal.

As per The Telegraph, Alli joins in a move that will not see the Merseyside club have to pay a penny until he plays 20 games for his new side.

The Englishman really struggled at Spurs this season, making just eight Premier League starts, while last term, he failed to score a single goal in the top flight. Furthermore, this may just be the fresh start he needs.

Overall, Monday was a busy day for the Toffees, with Lampard coming in to take charge and Donny van de Beek also arriving on loan from Manchester United.

Jones has told GIVEMESPORT that Alli's move to Everton is something he is excited about as he looks to get his career back up and running again under Lampard.

Speaking to GMS, the transfer insider said: "I think he likes the idea of reviving his career under someone like Frank Lampard, who's been there and done it and can personally guide him in almost every sense."

That is the golden question. Having struggled under Antonio Conte, Nuno Espirito Santo and Jose Mourinho, some may have their doubts.

However, at 25 years of age, Alli is still quite a young player. He has time on his side and perhaps a new team, a new environment, is something he needed.
