SJK: Liverpool closely monitoring Allan progress

Liverpool are in regular touch with SJK over the progress of loan signing Allan Rodrigues de Souza.

The former Internacional midfield prospect has enjoyed his first taste of senior football with Seinäjoen Jalkapallokerho.

SJK coach Simo Valakari has taken advantage of Allan's versatility, playing him across his midfield.

The club's press officer Lari Paski told tribalfootball.com: "Allan has played in central midfield as a 6 or an 8."

Liverpool are in constant touch with SJK over Allan's progress - both in training and match action.

"Liverpool are 2-3 times a week in touch following Allan's progress, there has been a Liverpool representative at all of the games as well as their loan manager visiting for a slightly longer period," says Paski.

"They also ask for his physical training data to be sent back to them on a weekly basis."

Valakari's SJK currently sit top of the Veikkausliiga table.
