Napoli president confirms Allan will join Everton
Despite previous interest from Paris Saint-Germain, Allan is set to leave Napoli for Everton, linking up again with Carlo Ancelotti.
Brazil international Allan is set to finally depart Napoli in a reported £25million (€27.9m) deal after repeated talk of a move away from the Serie A club in recent years.
A €100m transfer to Paris Saint-Germain was mooted in 2019 when Carlo Ancelotti was in charge of the Partenopei.
But Allan is instead now heading to Merseyside to link up with Ancelotti again at Goodison Park, De Laurentiis says.
He told Radio Kiss Kiss: "We are at the final greetings. Allan will go to Everton."
Allan, 29, joined Napoli from Udinese in 2015 and has since made over 150 Serie A appearances for the club, also winning the Coppa Italia last season.
Everton have also been widely linked with a move for James Rodriguez, another of Ancelotti's former players, from Real Madrid.
