Transfer link
Wolverhampton Wanderers have been linked with a move for Napoli’s Allan.
According to reports in Italy, Allan has also attracted the attentions of Wolves ‘ Premier League rivals Everton and an unnamed club.
Super-agent Jorge Mendes has reportedly become part of negotiations too.
The founder of sports agency company Gestifute has six of his players on the books at Wolves and Ciro Venerato, a journalist at Italian TV station RAI Sport, thinks Allan could move to Wolves with Mendes’ help.
En route
Wolverhampton Wanderers youngster Ryan Giles has re-joined Coventry City.
The 20-year-old returns to the Sky Blues after spending the latter half of the 2019-20 campaign with Mark Robins’ side.
He only made one appearance last season but it later transpired that the Telford-born left-back was being examined by Robins with a view to bringing him back to the club.
Giles has now returned to City and will replace Sam McCallum, who has moved to Norwich City.
Sign him up
Manchester United icon Rio Ferdinand has urged his former club to leap ahead of Juventus in the chase for Wolves forward Raul Jimenez.
Jimenez has been linked heavily to both clubs over the course of the past season, playing an essential part of Wolves’ Premier League and Europa League campaign.
In the former, the Mexican striker has scored 17 goals – leading the way for Wanderers and putting him firmly on the map of the Red Devils.
Despite that, Juventus have been reportedly keeping tabs – even going as far to plan a move via the sale of Douglas Costa.

A win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday will see Wolves finish sixth in the Premier League and secure Europa League football as the bare minimum for 2020/21.
