Deivid 'Hulk' de Souza (born October 22, 1979, also known as Deivid) is a Brazilian soccer player who plays for Fenerbahçe SK. He stands at 180 centimeters and weighs 73 kilograms. His nickname is Hulk.[2]
He was transferred from Santos, where he was paired with Robinho, at the beginning of the 2005/06 to Sporting Lisbon for a sum of €3.5 million. This was the second time that he tried his chance in Europe after a short spell in France ended roughly a year ago.
Deivid was transferred to Fenerbahçe SK in August 2006 for a sum of €4.5 million.[3] He scored the 2nd goal in the 88th minute against Trabzonspor on 13 May 2007 and helped Fenerbahçe win the Turkish Super League Championship after the game finishing 2-2 crowned them champions.[4] However, he hasn't satisfied the supporters of the club yet and only performed well in a couple of matches in the last year. Football circles were sure that his contract would be terminated by the club due to his poor performance.[5]
Deivid proved them wrong by becoming the star of the preseason training camp and by scoring an important goal against Beşiktaş J.K in the Turkish Super Cup final [6] and by scoring the decisive goal against Internazionale in the first match of the 2007-08 UEFA Champions League in the Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium on 19 September 2007.
Deivid would score another important European goal for Fenerbahce on the 2nd Champions League match day, to help them record a 2-2 draw away at CSKA Moscow. In the 3rd Champions League match day he was sent off against PSV Eindhoven.
In the 2007-2008 Europe Champions League against Sevilla in Spain, Deivid also scored two goals which carried the match to extra time and then penalties. With his goals Fenerbahce eliminated Sevilla and made it to the quarter final of the tournament for the first time in their history. In the first leg of the quarter final match against Chelsea FC Deivid scored an own goal in the thirteenth minute, when an attempted Florent Malouda cross struck his foot and passed his own keeper. He atoned for this mistake when he scored an astonishing 35-yard shot 9 minutes from the finish to give Fenerbahce a 2-1 lead after Colin Kazim-Richards had equalised.
