Allan is a new Everton player. The news had been in the air for several days now, but in these hours the official has finally arrived. New adventure for the Brazilian midfielder, who leaves Napoli after five seasons and over 200 appearances to rejoin coach Carlo Ancelotti in the Premier League. With 25 million euros in the coffers of De Laurentiis’ club, which just a year ago could have sold it to Paris Saint-Germain for about double. But ADL, as he himself declared in the same days, has understood the lesson and that is now water under the bridge.
Napoli looks ahead and continues its silent revolution, Allan flies to England but certainly does not forget his most recent past: “Naples is a special city. For me and my family it has been 5 fantastic years: my children speak, they think and dream in Neapolitan. I am grateful, therefore, to president De Laurentiis who gave me the opportunity to wear a glorious jersey. In this club I grew up as a professional and a man and I was able to work with coaches and professionals to whom I will always have to be grateful . I was lucky to find, along my path, teammates who were brothers. The last season was difficult. But winning the Coppa Italia was the best way, the fairest, to end a story of I felt like a protagonist. A special thanks to the fans: it has been a privilege and a pride to be, in recent years, their ‘Neapolitan Mastiff’ “, was the moved greeting on Instagram of the former Udinese.
