Playing career

At a very young age, Allan started playing football for Jolly Boys F.C., a local club started by his brother, Lawrence Dias, former Air India FC and Mahindra United F.C. starlet, in Sahar Village, a small place in Mumbai where he and his elder brother grew up. Determined hard work and rigorous training helped Allan achieve at various levels in private tournaments held all over the city.
