However, I can offer a summary based on the related reporting from other sources in the search results about Allan's transfer links to Liverpool. **Allan: Palmeiras Midfielder Emerges as Liverpool Target** Liverpool have entered the race to sign 21-year-old Brazilian midfielder Allan from Palmeiras, according to reports from journalist Ekrem Konur[2]. The talented prospect has attracted attention from multiple top European clubs following his standout performances in the 2026 Campeonato Paulista[5]. Allan has been described as a "complete midfielder" by scouts, with particular praise for his physical resilience and tactical versatility[2]. Liverpool's scouts have given his ability to circulate the ball under high pressure a "perfect" rating[2]. His left-footed control and tempo-setting abilities have established him as one of the hottest prospects on the international transfer market[5]. Palmeiras are willing to accept bids in the region of €30m–€35m for the midfielder, though they remain determined to retain him for the Club World Cup[2][5]. Allan's contract runs until 2029 and includes a €100m release clause, which could inflate his final transfer fee if a bidding war develops[3]. Liverpool's interest reflects their midfield struggles this season. The Premier League club has identified the need to strengthen their midfield, which has left their defense exposed during what has been a challenging campaign[2]. However, competition for Allan is intense, with Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Napoli, Benfica, and MLS side Inter Miami also credited with interest[2][5][6]. Despite being unproven in European football, Allan represents an investment in youth potential. Since his promotion to Palmeiras' first team in 2025, he has recorded 11 goal contributions across 64 matches in all competitions[6]. Whether Liverpool will commit the necessary funds remains uncertain, particularly given potential rival interest driving up the price.
