Khellven joined Palmeiras this season and has already taken over the starting position at right-back. The number 12 has put Giay on the bench and, despite some fluctuations, has been Abel Ferreira's primary choice.
The right-back has played 19 times for Palmeiras and contributed with two assists. According to Sofascore statistics, the right-back has had a consistent performance on both sides of the field. On the defensive side, he was dribbled past, on average, once per match and recorded an average of 0.63 interceptions per game. Offensively, he performed better: there were 28 long passes, 10 successful dribbles, and an average pass success rate of 80%.
Returning to Brazilian football after two years at CSKA in Russia, Khellven joined Palmeiras to replace Mayke, who had been with the club since 2017. The right-back was signed for R$ 32 million and signed a contract until July 2030.
