€100 million clause won't stop City! Guardiola's side chase Palmeiras' Brazilian jewel
Manchester City are already hunting for the next Brazilian gem as Tottenham close in on Savinho.
Details: According to David Ornstein, Manchester City are working on a deal to sign Palmeiras winger Allan. The 22-year-old is one of City's targets as Tottenham advance in talks for Savinho, although the Brazilian club insist their man is not for sale this summer. His release clause is set at a whopping €100 million.
The Citizens could lose both Savinho and Omar Marmoush to Spurs before the window shuts, so refreshing the flanks has become a priority for the champions. Allan fits the profile perfectly: a left-footed right winger with a contract at Palmeiras until the end of 2029, which explains why the São Paulo giants feel no pressure to negotiate and point every suitor to the giant clause.
Allan, who wears the number 40 shirt, broke into the Palmeiras first team in January 2025 and immediately became one of their standout performers, racking up 95 senior appearances and nine goals. This season he already has four goals and two assists in 20 league matches, and tonight he is set to face Cerro Porteño in the Copa Libertadores round of 16. It's worth noting that Transfermarkt values the Brazilian at €20 million.
Reminder: Big midfield reinforcement! Manchester City targets Bournemouth's star.
