Al Wahda have confirmed that they have completed the signing of Everton midfielder Allan.
Last week, it was reported that the Brazilian could link up with the United Arab Emirates side before their transfer deadline of October 4.
The 31-year-old has fallen down the pecking order at Goodison Park since the end of last season, arguably being as low as seventh choice in the centre of the pitch.
Amadou Onana, Idrissa Gueye, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Alex Iwobi, Tom Davies and James Garner are all ahead of the former Napoli man.
Having failed to make a single appearance during 2022-23, there was little prospect of Allan receiving any game time before the January window.
The decision has now been made for Allan to depart Merseyside for Al Wahda, who took to social media on Sunday evening to confirm the deal.
Al Wahda have endured a disappointing start to the season, collecting just one point from their opening three league fixtures.
In September 2020, Everton paid £21m to sign Allan, and he went on to make a total of 57 appearances in all competitions.
Despite Everton not generating anywhere near to that transfer fee, they have at least reduced their wage bill with the exit of an out-of-favour player.
Allan's contract had been due to expire at the end of June. body check tags ::
