Liverpool have officially announced the signing of Brazilian midfielder Allan Rodrigues de Souza.

Allan has been training with Liverpool's first team since he was given permission by Brazilian side Internacional earlier this summer and the Reds pushed a permanent move over the line before the transfer window closed.




The 18-year-old has now been sent out on loan by the Reds to build up his first team experience.

However, Allan has not been sent to another English side and is instead being dispatched to Finland.
 

 

Allan links up with Finnish top flight side Seinajoen, who at present are second in the table, one point behind leaders and perennial champions HJK Helsinki.

The Brazilian midfielder could make his debut for his new side on 10th September away against KuPS.

Allan's signing means Liverpool now have four Brazilian players at the club; he joins Philippe Coutinho, Lucas Leiva and Roberto Firmino.

The 18-year-old turned out for Liverpool's Under-21 side in three friendlies this summer.
