Napoli midfielder Allan is happy at the club under the guidance of Italian tactician Carlo Ancelotti according to his agent.
His representative was reacting to strong transfer rumours linking his client with a move to North London side Tottenham Hotspur in the New Year.
Tottenham are said to be on the search for midfield replacements for both Moussa Dembele and Victor Wanyama with widespread reports saying that the North Londoners have identified Brazilian midfielder Allan as a potential signing.
According to his agent Juan Arribas, Allan won’t be leaving Napoli when the transfer window opens in four weeks time.
Allan was a key player for Napoli under the managerial reign of Maurizio Sarri and he has continued in that fashion with the help of Carlo Ancelotti who replaced the former Empoli boss at the Italian club.
He was utilised in a box-to-box role in the possession-based style of Sarri.
He was heavily linked with Chelsea in the summer following the appointment of the 59-year-old during the summer but the 27-year-old player decided to stay at Napoli.
Maurizio Sarri has tried to reprise the Allan role at Napoli with N’Golo Kante at Chelsea but the Frenchman has not been able to achieve much.
