Everton midfielder Dele Alli is aiming for a return from injury next season and has set his sights on playing in the 2026 World Cup. The 28-year-old has been sidelined since February 2023 due to various injury issues that have kept him out of action for over a year. Despite opening up about his mental health struggles and past abuse, Alli is determined to make a comeback in the near future.
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. He acknowledged his disappointment with his current injury situation and emphasized his desire to play in the World Cup in 2026. 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.
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. With his England national team appearances behind him, Alli is focused on overcoming his injury setbacks and preparing for a potential World Cup opportunity in the coming years.
As Alli looks ahead to the future, he remains committed to his recovery and rehabilitation process. He is determined to take each day as it comes and ensure that he is in peak condition for his return to the field. Despite the uncertainties surrounding his current contract situation with Everton, Alli’s primary goal is to regain his fitness and perform at the highest level possible.
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.
