# Liverpool keen on signing Fluminense star Evanilson

Liverpool have made contact with Evanilson over a potential move, according to [https://www.netflu.com.br/perto-do-fim-do-contrato-destaque-da-base-e-observado-pelo-liverpool/](https://www.netflu.com.br/perto-do-fim-do-contrato-destaque-da-base-e-observado-pelo-liverpool/)*[Netflu](https://www.netflu.com.br/perto-do-fim-do-contrato-destaque-da-base-e-observado-pelo-liverpool/)*.

The Fluminense youngster’s contract expires in February 2020 and the Brazilian club could be keen to earn a fee for the midfielder.

Evanilson hasn’t yet become a regular for his team, but he shone on loan at Samorin last season, scoring three goals in six appearances.

He has also caught the eye for Fluminense’s Under-20 side this season, scoring more than anyone in the Brazilian youth league.

Brazilian journalist Robbie Blakeley also provided an update on the situation to [https://www.footballwhispers.com/blog/evanilson-brazilian-wonderkid](https://www.footballwhispers.com/blog/evanilson-brazilian-wonderkid)*[Football Whispers](https://www.footballwhispers.com/blog/evanilson-brazilian-wonderkid)*, saying the 20-year-old could be signed on the cheap by Liverpool:

> Fluminense are cash strapped so even if a bid was something like £4million, a relative pittance for a Premier League club, that converts into roughly 21 million reais, a fortune for the club in their current predicament.

> Brazilian teams love selling to the Premier League, and China, but not just because of the money on offer. The exposure they receive benefits them in the long run.

### Read Liverpool Verdict

Not a huge amount is known about Evanilson, in truth, but there is always something exotic about a Brazilian player joining the Reds.

It may be a move that ends up being unlikely, but considering the price Liverpool could sign him for, it would be worth the risk.

Don’t bank on it happening, though.
