He is a free agent, as his contract with Portugal’s Chaves expired on the 30th.

Still according to the journalist, the talks are still at an early stage.

Vozinha is also said to already have advertising deals lined up in Brazil.

And his appeal on social media would be another attraction for interested clubs.

He currently boasts 24.8 million followers on Instagram — he had 56,000 before the World Cup.

He is close to overtaking Flamengo, which leads among the country’s clubs with 24.9 million.

Atlético lost 3-0 to Novorizontino this Saturday and sits 12th in Série B.

Avaí, meanwhile, is in the relegation zone — currently 18th — with a game in hand.
