Deyverson Brum Silva Acosta (born 8 May 1991), also known as "Deyvinho", or simply known as Deyverson, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Cuiabá.

Club career

Early career

Born in Santa Margarida, a neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro, Deyverson began his career with lowly local side Grêmio Mangaratibense in 2011. Known as Acosta at the time, he made his senior debut on 10 March 2011, starting and scoring the opener in a 2–0 Campeonato Carioca Série C home win against Duquecaxiense.

During his two-year period at Mangaratibense, Deyverson scored 18 goals in 31 appearances, being his side's top goalscorer in the two Carioca Série C editions where he played.

Benfica

On 5 September 2012, after a trial period, Deyverson joined Benfica on a three-year deal.[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.

Belenenses

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]

Levante

On 27 July 2015, Deyverson signed a four-year deal with La Liga side Levante, 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 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 Barcelona at the Camp Nou.[11]

Palmeiras

On 11 July 2017 Deyverson returned to his homeland, after agreeing to a five-year contract with Palmeiras.[12] In his first season back, he scored seven goals, including a game winner in a 2–1 victory vs Botafogo,[13] and a brace against Flamengo,[14] as Palmeiras finished second in the table. He helped the club lift the 2018 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A by scoring nine goals, but subsequently fell down the packing order after the arrival of Luiz Adriano.

On 21 January 2020, Deyverson returned to Spain after agreeing to a loan deal with Getafe in the first division for the remainder of the campaign.[15] On 23 August, he returned to Alavés also in a temporary deal, but Alaves decided not to make the transfer permanent after he only scored once in 25 appearances.[16]

On 27 November 2021, Deyverson scored the winning goal of the Copa Libertadores Final in the 5th minute of extra time, following a defensive error from Flamengo midfielder Andreas Pereira and was elected the Man of the Match.[17]

Cuiabá

On 4 August 2022, Deyverson joined Série A club Cuiabá on a free transfer.[18] He scored his first goal for the club on 4 September, in a 1-1 draw against Sao Paulo. After that he added five more goals, including a spell of three goals in three consecutive matches.

On 29 July 2023, he scored the winning goal in an away victory against Internacional.[19] A week later he assisted Clayson and scored the final goal of the match as Cuiaba beat Flamengo 3-0.[20]
