DELE ALLI’S Italian dream is turning into a nightmare after reportedly being booted out of the Como squad.
The ex-England ace is now training on his own with his future at the club hanging by a thread.
Dele, 29, only joined the Serie A newcomers in January, hoping for one last career revival under Cesc Fabregas.
But just months later, the former Spurs star has reportedly been frozen out and could be shown the door.
Gazzetta dello Sport say that Fabregas no longer sees Dele in his plans for the season ahead.
The midfielder hasn’t kicked a ball in a competitive game since March and even then, it ended in disaster.
Dele came off the bench late against AC Milan at the San Siro and lasted just 10 minutes.
A challenge on England pal Ruben Loftus-Cheek saw VAR intervene and Dele shown a straight red.
Even Kyle Walker - who was playing for Milan - made a desperate plea to the ref but it couldn’t save him from an early bath.
He was banned for one match but hasn’t played since.

Fabregas kept him on the bench for the rest of the campaign.
Fitness issues, which have dogged Dele for years, also reportedly struck again.
Now, it's claimed he has been banished from the first team and is training away from the squad, alongside other unwanted players.
Como have moved on and are focusing on younger stars with better fitness records and fewer risks.
And Gazzetta suggest Dele will now consider retiring should he not find a new club soon.
