DELE ALLI’S Besiktas manager says the midfielder “doesn’t deserve to play” for the club.
Besiktas boss Senol Gunes reckons Alli’s current form does not warrant a place in the team.
Alli, 26, has played just one minute of league action since October – the same month Gunes was appointed manager.
He has been largely frozen out of the team ever since Gunes took over from Valerien Ismael.
The on loan Everton man was an unused substitute in last night’s Turkish Cup defeat to Ankaragucu.
And after the game Besiktas boss Gunes claimed Alli is not deserving of a place in the team at this moment in time.

After receiving a hero’s welcome at the airport, Alli scored in just his second game for the club.

He has played just 10 games for Besiktas since joining.
