A day after FC Barcelona signed Brazilian prodigy Keirrison, several European teams reportedly showed interest in having the player on loan for a season.

The Catalan giants are likely to loan out the 20-year-old in order to give him time and gain experience elsewhere.

Dutch side Ajax of Amsterdam are one of the interested parties, as are Portuguese outfits FC Porto and Benfica, media report. It is expected that a decision on the player’s near future will be announced early next week.

Keirrison, who made the move from Palmeiras and cost 14 million Euros, is said to be one of the most talented Brazilian youngsters. In 19 games for Palmeiras, the striker scored 11 goals.
