In an interview with Si Gonfia Di Rete, Allan's agent commented on the rumours linking his client with a transfer (Tottenham mainly), while adding an interesting detail about Allan's evolution under the management of Sarri. 

 

"His debut with Brazil? He was very happy: this has been a dream of his ever since he was a child. His improvements at Napoli? In addition to maturing as a man, he realised that under Sarri, there was a job to get done. He started to eat a lot to get physically stronger. Now he's also growing tactically. 

 

"The top European clubs are becoming interested in him? He is very happy in Naples and we haven't received any phone calls. If someone had called the club, which we have a great relationship with, I think we would've known," he concluded.
