Napoli president confirms Allan will sign for Everton

Despite previous interest from Paris Saint-Germain, the midfielder is set to swap Italy for England, linking up again with Carlo Ancelotti

Brazil international Allan will complete a transfer to Everton, Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has confirmed.

Allan is set to finally depart Napoli in a reported £25 million ($33m) deal after repeated talk of a move away from the Serie A club in recent years.

A €100m transfer (£90m/$119m) to Paris Saint-Germain was mooted in 2019 when Carlo Ancelotti was in charge of the Partenopei.
