Everton midfielder Allan has signed for Al Wahda in the United Arab Emirates.
The 31-year old Brazilian, who joined from Napoli for £21million two years ago, has yet to play for Everton in the Premier League this season.
He has dropped down the pecking order after Frank Lampard brought in three new midfield signing this summer.
Al Wahda, based in Abu Dhabi, are coached by former Sheffield Wednesday boss Carlos Carvalhal.
Allan passed his medical and agreed personal terms over the weekend prior to finalising his contract on Sunday.
Al Wahda took to Twitter to announce the deal. Accompanied by a photo of Allan in the club's kit, a tweet read: 'Welcome Allan to home of champions.'
Another tweet said: 'Al Wahda Football Club has contracted with the Brazilian player Alan Marcos, in a permanent transfer deal from the English club Everton and with a two-season contract, as part of the club's efforts to strengthen the ranks of the first team and meet the requirements of success.
For his part, 'Alan' praised the professional work during the completion of the contracting procedures, expressing his happiness to join the homeland of champions, and his desire to contribute to achieving more achievements and victories.'
