European soccer transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano reported on his personal SNS on the 16th (Korea time) that `Ali is scheduled to start training with Como from the 26th.'
Romano will schedule 'Ali with Como and Cesc Fabregas. Como hopes Ali can prove his fitness and join the team. However, for now, joining is not guaranteed, and it depends on his performance. Ali had already attended the Como match yesterday.
Ali, once a top talent representing England and Tottenham, showed tremendous skill as soon as he joined Tottenham, becoming a mainstay. Together with Son Heung-min, Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen, he built a 'DESK' line to lead Tottenham's heyday in the 2010s. Son's chemistry with Son also drew attention. Ali, who scored a huge offensive point with 18 goals and nine assists in 37 league games in the 2016-2017 season, was evaluated to be responsible for the future of the English national team.
Ali's heyday didn't last long. From the 2019-2020 season, the notification showed a downward trend. He, who was also struggling under Jose Mourinho, has become a headache for the team. He transferred to Everton in the 2021-2022 season, but after the transfer, he was criticized for enjoying things that fans could not welcome, such as alcohol, clubs and cigarettes.

Ali's return, however, is hardly getting a boost. I tried to get back on the ground last season, but I couldn't improve my physical condition. After the end of the season, Everton supported Ali with a lot of things, including providing him with training facilities, even though his contract expired. Ali also showed his focus on training, making fans look forward to it. However, Ali has not been able to return until now, when the 2024-2025 season opened.
Ali eventually decided to leave Everton, who had supported him, to go to Como. Under the guidance of Fabregas, a former English Premier League (EPL) legend midfielder in Como, he is expected to once again enter the process of returning. However, whether to sign a contract or join the Como first team depends on Ali's performance.
Ali's last appearance was on February 26, 2023. He has been absent for 660 days. Fabregas is expected to see if he can rebound Ali again.
