The clubs reached an agreement on Wednesday night and the 18-year-old is already flying to Ukraine to undergo a medical and sign a five-year contract.
Neverton is a wing forward. This year he has played 19 games and scored four goals for the U-20 team. He has never played in the club's first team.
According to the source, "Shakhtar's offer, the cost of which was not disclosed, was favoured by the São Paulo board of directors, who saw in this transfer an opportunity for unplanned earnings".
