Alan Pereira Empereur (born March 10, 1994) is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a defender for Italian club Foggia.[1] He also holds Italian citizenship.

Playing career

Early career

Empereur started out playing for local clubs Associação Esportiva e Recreativa Usipa and Associação Atlética Aciaria, respectively. From there, he made the move to Atlético Mineiro's youth academy, where he played in their youth leagues and various cups.[2] During a tournament in São Paulo in January 2007, he caught the attention of an agent, Camilo Abranches, who offered to take him to Italy to join the Fiorentina youth team.[3] His Italian ancestry, through his paternal grandfather, allowed him to easily secure an Italian passport, facilitating the transition.[2]

At Fiorentina, he passed through the U15 and U17 squads before graduating to the Primavera (U19) team in 2010. With them, he made 59 league appearances in four seasons, while regularly training with the first team.

Club career

In August 2014, Empereur was loaned out to Ischia in the third-tier Lega Pro.[4] He made his debut on August 31, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1-0 loss to Benevento.[5] Ischia finished near the bottom of the table in his only season there, but Empereur was seen as one of the team's lone bright spots.[6]

Upon his return to Fiorentina, he was loaned out to Serie B team Livorno in February 2015,[7] although he spent most of his stint with Amaranto on the bench. His only appearance for the club was on February 7, when he came on for Giuseppe Gemiti in a 5-2 win against Bari.[8]

In July 2016, Empereur signed a three-year deal with Foggia.[9][10]
