Ammon News - Manchester City have confirmed the signing of 22-year-old Brazilian winger Allan Elias from Palmeiras on a five-year ​contract, the club's sixth summer arrival.
"Allan is a ‌really exciting player, and we think he will be a big addition to the squad," City's Director of Football Hugo Viana said ​in a statement on Monday. "He has shown throughout ​his short career so far that he will ⁠fight to be the best he can be."

According to ​reports, City have agreed to pay around €40 million ($47 million) for ​the player who came through the academy ranks at the Sao Paulo club and made 96 first-team appearances.

Elliot Anderson, Geronimo Rulli, Ayyoub ​Bouaddi, Jeremy Monga and Pierce Charles have also joined ​the club during this transfer window.
"This is a surreal moment for ‌me. ⁠Manchester City, with everything they have won over the past 15 years, are one of the most attractive clubs in the world for players," Allan said.

"To be able to ​sit here ​today and ⁠say I have joined them is the proudest moment of my life. I love Palmeiras ​and always will but the decision to ​come ⁠to City was an easy one."

Florianopolis-born Elias said he hoped to be "another good Brazilian" in the Premier League and follow ⁠in ​the footsteps of the likes of ​Gabriel Jesus, Ederson and Fernandinho, who all won Premier League titles with ​City.
