Napoli midfielder Allan is a target for Premier League clubs.
The Sun says Newcastle United are in a three-way battle for Allan.
Southampton and West Brom are also interested in splashing out £10million on the Brazilian.
Allan, 26, has been a regular with the Italian giants for two seasons after arriving from Udinese – but they are willing to cash in for the right price.
And Rafa Benitez keen on bringing him over to the Premier League this summer to bolster his squad following promotion.
He reckons the ex- Vasco da Gama man can adapt immediately to English football after proving himself in Serie A.
