Man City agree deal for Palmeiras winger Allan

What the report says

Manchester City have reached an agreement to sign Palmeiras winger Allan Elias in a transfer that could rise to £34.2m, according to BBC Sport Football. The 22-year-old Brazilian is expected to undergo a medical in the coming days, with City said to be paying a £32m fixed fee plus up to £2.2m in add-ons.

The move appears tied to wider changes in City’s attacking options. BBC Sport reports that Allan is viewed as a replacement for fellow Brazilian Savinho, who is close to joining Tottenham. City are also understood to be in advanced talks to sell Egypt forward Omar Marmoush to Spurs, though some details still need to be resolved before the 1 September transfer deadline.

The article also says midfielder Nico Gonzalez could leave Etihad Stadium before the window closes, with Newcastle showing strong interest. If completed, the deal for Allan would continue a busy late-summer transfer period for Manchester City as they reshape the squad around possible departures.

Allan, who came through Palmeiras’ youth system before making his senior debut in 2025, would be another South American arrival for Pep Guardiola’s side. The reported fee underlines the club’s willingness to invest in younger attacking talent as it manages outgoing and incoming transfers.
