Could Palace be battling Everton again in this transfer window? Tottenham midfielder linked with SE25 loan move

Crystal Palace and Everton are reportedly both interested in signing Dele Alli from Tottenham.

Alli has been linked with a move away from Spurs all month after struggling for form in recent seasons.

Everton beat Crystal Palace to the signature of Donny van de Beek and the two could be set to battle it out again, but this time for Alli.

TalkSPORT are reporting that Palace are willing to take the 25-year-old but they would want any signing to be a loan deal.

But they add that the Toffees want the Spurs outcast on a permanent deal.

Alli has scored 51 goals in 181 appearances for the north London club, seven years since making his debut after signing from MK Dons in 2015.
