LONDON (AP) — Dele Alli is leaving the Premier League in the latest attempt to revive his career. The former England midfielder, who was once one of English soccer’s brightest prospects, left Everton to join Turkish club Besiktas on a season-long loan. The 26-year-old failed to make an impact at Goodison Park following his free transfer from Tottenham in January. He had fallen down the pecking order at Spurs and dropped out of the reckoning for the national team, for whom he has made 37 appearances. Alli played 11 times for Everton last season as the team narrowly avoided relegation. He has appeared twice as a substitute this season.
