Club career

Born in Santa Margarida, Rio de Janeiro, Deyverson joined Benfica on a three-year deal, arriving on 5 September 2012, from Grêmio Mangaratibense.[1] He was placed on the reserve side and made his debut on 19 September 2012, against Tondela.[2] His first goal was in the immediate matchday, scoring the winner in a 2-1 away victory at Oliveirense.[3] He scored 8 league goals throughout the season, being on the starting eleven only 12 times.

On 6 August 2013, Deyverson joined Belenenses, signing a four-year deal.[4] After settling as the main striker in 2014–15, he scored the only goal in a 1–1 draw at Alvalade.[5]

On 2 February 2015, Deyverson signed a six-month loan deal with Bundesliga team, 1. FC Köln.[6] He scored his first goal on 8 March 2015, against Eintracht Frankfurt.[7]

On 27 July 2015, Deyverson signed a four-year deal with La Liga side Levante UD, for a rumoured 2 million fee.[8] He made his debut in the category on 23 August, starting in a 1–2 home loss against Celta de Vigo.[9]

Deyverson scored his first goal in the main category of Spanish football on 23 September 2015, scoring a last-minute equalizer in a 2–2 home draw against SD Eibar. On 22 November, he contributed with a brace in a 3–0 away win against Sporting de Gijón, taking his tally up to four goals in ten matches.

On 21 July 2016, after Levante's relegation, Deyverson signed a one-year loan deal with Deportivo Alavés also in the top level, with a buyout clause.[10] On 10 September he scored his first goal for the club, netting the first in a 2–1 historical win against FC Barcelona at the Camp Nou.[11]
