Despite a season without titles, Palmeiras found one of its bright spots in Allan in 2025. A product of the Academy, the 21-year-old midfielder experienced his most active year since joining the professional squad and finished the season on a high note, earning the right to fight for more space in the Verdão squad in 2026.

Allan took to the field 54 times throughout the year, starting in 16 matches, scoring three goals and providing six assists. Versatile, the youngster was used by Abel Ferreira in different roles: he played as a winger, wing-back, attacking midfielder, and also as a second defensive midfielder, a trait that increased his value within the squad.

His consistent performances led to standout moments in important competitions. One of these came in the Club World Cup, when Allan provided an assist for a Palmeiras goal in the draw against Inter Miami, a team led by Lionel Messi. His performance in the international tournament helped raise his profile and reinforced his positive image with the coaching staff and fans.

The most memorable match of the season, however, was in the Libertadores semifinal. After a 3-0 defeat to LDU in Quito, Palmeiras needed a perfect performance at Allianz Parque. Allan started the match and was decisive by providing the assist for the first goal in the historic comeback, which ended in a 4-0 rout and secured Verdão’s place in the continental tournament final.

With personality, intensity, and versatility, Allan made the most of the opportunities he received during a year of squad restructuring. The internal expectation is that the midfielder will have even more space in 2026, establishing himself as one of the main prospects developed by Palmeiras’ youth academy and an important piece in the club’s plans for the next season.
