Manchester City have agreed a deal to sign Brazilian winger Allan Elias from Palmeiras, finalizing a transfer worth an initial 37.5 million euros (approximately £32 million) plus add-ons. The agreement, confirmed on August 24, 2026, comes as the club moves to replace Savinho, who has departed for Tottenham Hotspur in a separate deal. The transfer for Elias, 22, was structured with 37.5 million euros paid upfront and a further 2.5 million euros in potential add-ons. The player has been granted permission by Palmeiras to travel to England to complete his medical, with a long-term contract agreed in principle. The move is expected to be completed before the September 1 transfer deadline.
