Corinthians close in on signing Allan from Flamengo | OneFootball

Allan's Transfer Will Be a Loan

The Corinthians is close to signing Allan from Flamengo. The Rubro-Negro accepted the offer from the São Paulo team for a loan, without a purchase option, with the salary fully paid by the club from Parque São Jorge. Coach Dorival Júnior played a crucial role in 'unlocking' the talks.

Allan has a contract with Flamengo until December 2027. The loan information was first reported by journalist Venê Casagrande, but the Coluna do Fla team confirmed that the midfielder will be loaned until the end of the season.

In previous discussions between Flamengo and Corinthians and São Paulo for Allan, the São Paulo clubs found the player's salary too high and requested to share it. However, the Rubro-Negro stood firm and only agreed to do business with the interested party taking on 100% of the wages.

WHAT WAS DORIVAL JÚNIOR'S ROLE IN THE DEAL?

Dorival Júnior called several times to convince Allan to transfer to Corinthians. Additionally, the coach asked the club from Parque São Jorge to persist in the signing. The new reinforcement will arrive to compete for a position with names like Raniele, Charles, Breno Bidon, and Carrillo.

HOW DID ALLAN PERFORM AT FLAMENGO?

Signed in 2023 by Flamengo at the request of Jorge Sampaoli, Allan failed to win over the fans. A substitute for almost the entire period at the Rubro-Negro, the player has 87 appearances with the Sacred Mantle but has never scored a goal or provided an assist.

WILL ALLAN PLAY AGAINST SAMPAIO CORRÊA?

Excluded from the squad list for Flamengo against Internacional on Wednesday (04), Allan is also expected to be absent from the list for the match this Saturday (07) at Maracanã, for the last round of the group stage of the Campeonato Carioca. The match kicks off at 9 PM (Brasília time) against Sampaio Corrêa.
