Kevin Peterson dos Santos Silva (born 7 September 1997), simply known as Kevin, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a right back for Tombense.

Playing career

[edit]

After being noticed by a scout, he was brought to a trial at Mirassol, where he was signed and after playing in a U17 tournament with the team was signed to his first professional contract.[1]

In 2015, he joined Avaí, playing in their youth system.[2]

Soon after, he was acquired by Tombense, who sent him on a series of loans over the next years.[3]

First, he was loaned to Cruzeiro, where he stayed for two years,[1] playing in their youth system.[4]

From 2017 to 2018, he was on loan with Guarani.[5] With Guarani, he won the Paulista Serie A2.[1]

In January 2019, he went on loan with Goiás, on the recommendation of coach Maurício Barbieri.[6]

In 2020, he went on loan to Grêmio, on a five month loan with the possibility of an extension for another year.[7] He immediately joined the U23 side.[8] At the end of the five-month loan, the option to extend was not picked up due to the interruption of the season due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the fact that he had aged out of the U23 side.[9]

In July 2020, he joined Botafogo on loan through 2021.[10][11]

On 31 May 2021, he joined Ponte Preta on loan.[12][13]

In April 2022, he moved to Avaí on loan.[14] He scored his first professional goal on 13 June 2022, in a 1-0 victory over Botafogo.[15][16]
