The English club will pay around €37.5 million fixed (about R$225 million at the exchange rate), plus €2.5 million in bonuses, for Allan.

Previously unwilling to sell, Verdão agreed to negotiate with Manchester City after understanding that the offer had a good balance between the amount offered and the payment terms.

With the talks well advanced, Allan is no longer expected to play for Palmeiras.

Previous interest from England

In recent weeks, Palmeiras received an inquiry from Aston Villa of England. The Premier League club indicated a proposal of €30 million to Palmeiras, with €25 million fixed and the rest in bonuses.

Desire to keep him

Focused on winning titles in the 2026 season, Palmeiras does not want to negotiate any of its main players. Verdão would only do so if it received an offer considered “irresistible” by all parties.

In a recent press conference, Abel Ferreira said he does not expect to lose players who are key to the squad.

– I’m not expecting to lose players who are fundamental to our objectives. We’ve already won one title and we’re fighting for three more
