Brazilian starlet Keirrison has claimed he has rejected some huge offers to move to Europe.
A host of clubs, including Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, have been linked with the 20-year-old forward, who is currently plying his trade with Palmeiras.
He only joined Palmeiras on loan in January from Cortiba, where his contract will expire in 2009, although most of his rights are owned by a third party - Traffic Sports Marketing.
A move this summer looks the most likely option now, although the player insists he wants to see out his current deal with Palmeiras and has set his sights on making the full Brazil squad.
"I want to fulfil my contract with Palmeiras and join the Selecao [national side]," he told French sports paper Aujourd'hui Sport.
"I have received a lot of good offers from Europe and I even refused a truck load to stay in Brazil."
One of Keirrison's agents in the last week revealed that Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich had all made contact.
Lyon, Roma and Atletico Madrid are also said to be considering bids for highly-rated Samba starlet.
