Everton midfielder, Dele Alli, has completed his season-long loan move to Turkish club, Besiktas, from Everton.
The deal could be made permanent depending on the midfielder’s performance in Istanbul.
Everton will receive £1.86 million loan fee, and Besiktas will pay just £8,430 of Alli’s wages per game.
Alli arrives in the Turkish capital desperate for more game time after mostly being used from the bench since joining Everton.
The 26-year-old joined Everton from Tottenham in February and made 11 appearances, with just one start for the Goodison Park outfit last season.
The England international has made two substitute outings in league defeats against Chelsea and Aston Villa for the Toffees this season.
“For the first time, I will play football outside England.
“To be honest I feel great emotions from the moment I arrived. I can feel the passion here everywhere I travel.
“This is amazing stuff. I am very excited to start work as soon as possible. It will be a new challenge for me, I can’t wait for it,” Alli said.
Alli won the last of his 37 caps for England in 2019.
