Former England midfielder Dele Alli is set to join Serie A side Como, pending a medical.
The 28-year-old spent the last month training at the Serie A club and was handed an initial 18-month contract, with an option dependent on participation for an additional season.
Alli had been without a club since June when he left Everton, but continued to train under then-coach Sean Dyche before joining Como on trial.
The former Tottenham and MK Dons player has not played a match in men's football since joining Turkish side Besiktas in February 2023 on loan.
In an emotional interview with Gary Neville later in July 2023, Allie revealed that he was sexually abused when he was six and was dealing drugs when he was eight. He also admitted to drinking alcohol and taking sleeping pills during his career, but confirmed his desire to return to playing after receiving support for his problems off the field.
Como returned to Serie A for the first time in nearly 50 years last summer and is managed by former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas.
Spaniard Fabregas and Thierry Henry are both minority investors in the club.
