In January 2016, Allarakhia became Steve Ball's first signing as manager of Maldon & Tiptree.[5] He scored one goal in 18 appearances during the second-half of the 2015–16 season,[8] and scored a further four goals in 37 appearances during his first full season with the Jammers.[9] During his first few months at the club, through Maldon & Tiptree's link-up with Colchester United, Allarakhia made appearances for the Colchester under-21 team.[4]

In July 2017, Allarakhia signed a one year development contract with Colchester United.[10] He was released by the club at the end of the season.[11]

On 1 August 2018, Crawley Town signed Allarakhia on a two-year contract.[12] He made his professional debut on 14 August in Crawley's EFL Cup match against Bristol Rovers.[13] Allarakhia was loaned out for 28 days to Wealdstone on 8 January 2019.[14] The deal was later extended to the end of the season.
