“I think it depends a lot on us and what we do in the last few games,” Evanilson told the club's website.

“If we score enough points, we can get a place in European competition - which is a dream for Bournemouth.

“Ever since I arrived, I said that I wanted to play in a European competition for the club. Not only me, but all the players feel the same. I think we’re close, but we have to continue what we’ve been doing in recent games.”

On the spirit inside the squad, Evanilson was effusive.

“It’s a very close-knit group. We have players from all over the world, but on the pitch we’re united,” he said.

“There’s a very good friendship on and off the pitch, and I think that helps a lot.”
