Man City’s new Brazilian target – Allan Elias from Palmeiras

Savinho and Omar Marmoush are on their way out of Manchester City, as Tottenham Hotspur are set to splash out €151 million for the duo. Those transfers would provide a significant financial boost to the Cityzens while also clearing space for new arrivals.According to the Brazilian outlet ge.globo and The Athletic, their sights are set on 22-year-old Allan Elias.BREAKING: Manchester City have opened talks with Palmeiras over a deal for winger Allan 🚨City are working on finding replacements for Savinho, who is set to have a medical with Tottenham this afternoon ahead of a move worth up to £85m ⚽️ pic.twitter.com/8bSuGaIzfL— Sky Sports News (@SkySportsNews) August 21, 2026 The Manchester club has reportedly agreed personal terms with the forward, while the talks with Palmeiras are ongoing. The two sources also claim that Elias' release clause – should he join City – will stand at €100 million.Nevertheless, the Brazilian giants look like a tough nut to crack, as they aren't too keen on selling their gem. A few weeks ago, Aston Villa bid €25 million plus €5 million in add-ons, only to see their offer comfortably rejected.Therefore, if Enzo Maresca truly wants Elias, the Cityzens will have to break the bank.BETTING GUIDE: Manchester City vs Bournemouth, match preview, team news and predictionWhat could bode well for the Premier League powerhouse is that they already have a strong business relationship with Palmeiras, having signed Gabriel Jesus and Vitor Reis in 2016 and 2025, respectively, for a combined £54.4 million.While working on a deal for Elias, the Cityzens are getting ready for their Premier League opener against Bournemouth at the Etihad Stadium (16.00).
