Besiktas plan to send Dele Alli back to parent club Everton in January.

Takvim says Sivasspor midfielder Dia Saba is on the “agenda" to join Besiktas and replace Alli when the transfer window reopens in January.

Besiktas management have seen enough of Alli and intend to cut short his season-long deal.

Despite twice being crowned PFA Young Footballer of the Year, Alli failed to score or register an assist in his 13 appearances for Everton, after joining from Tottenham Hotspur, where he had previously excelled before falling out of favour.

The 26-year-old's limited impact led to Frank Lampard santioning loan move away from Goodison Park for the player at the start of the season, but it now seems ever more likely that he could be back on Merseyside early next year.
