On December 31, 2013, it was announced that Allen had signed a homegrown contract with Real Salt Lake of Major League Soccer.

After playing over 40 games in his first two full seasons, Allen's progress has been hampered by injury, only playing two matches since the end of the 2016 season. [4]

Allen retired from playing professional soccer at the end of the 2019 season due to injury problems. [5]
