Alexis McAllister has expressed his admiration for the South American star who will play in tonight’s Copa Libertadores final – but that man is not Andre Trindad.
As well as the Fluminense midfielder, United have also been linked with Boca Juniors’ Ezequiel Fernandes, who would also have a role deep in the center of the park. Last March, when the Anfield ace was a Brighton player, he named the 21-year-old as the player he urged his then employers to sign.
Mac Allister TyC Sports: “If you ask me more about my style, there is one player I really like and that is Equi Fernandes. He is a player who ticks all the boxes to make it to Europe one day and I hope it happens to him too.”He is a player I really like and he understands the game very well.
He is always ready to receive the ball, plays with both feet, can play five, inside… He is a player with very good conditions. If Brighton asked me, I’d tell him his name. »Andre is certainly a key figure in tonight’s Copa Libertadores clash for many Liverpool fans, having been linked with a long-term move to destroyers Fluminense, but Fernandes is also worth a look.
The 21-year-old, who has made 40 appearances for Boca this campaign, has been a key member of Jorge Almiron’s side heading for the 2023 final (Transfermarkt). Although Mc Allister made the aforementioned comments at Brighton, we dare say the World Cup winner would love to see the Reds make a move for his compatriot.
If Fernandes can make a decisive impact for Boca tonight and assert his dominance in South America, it could accelerate the young midfielder’s move to Europe. Whether or not this will happen for Liverpool is debatable in our opinion.
