Aston Villa are interested in signing Palmeiras star Allan in the ongoing transfer window.
According to Globo Esporte, Villa submitted a €30 million bid to sign the 22-year-old.
Palmeiras turned down their offer, as they consider Allan a key part of their plans for the 2026 season.

Villa are looking to reinforce their attacking options after Morgan Rogers’ record €137m transfer to Chelsea.
Leon Bailey is also facing an uncertain future at Villa Park, with newly-promoted Hull City keen to secure his services.
The Midlands outfit have already completed the signing of Alejandro Garnacho, but they aim to add another quality winger before the end of the transfer window.
Allan is one of the best talents to come out of Palmeiras’ youth academy.
The 22-year-old made his first-team debut in January 2025 and has made 88 appearances across all competitions, scoring nine goals and assisting further 10.

In last year’s Club World Cup, he started two matches, including the 2-1 defeat to Chelsea in the quarter-finals.
Allan mainly plays on the right wing, but he can also operate as an attacking midfielder.
Villa rate him highly and look determined to bring him to England.
But they will have to increase their offer to tempt Palmeiras into selling one of their key players.
With the forward under contract until 2029, the Brazilian club are in a strong negotiating position.
