Andre still unsigned and look at the strange nickname Liverpool fans have already given him

After saying goodbye to Fabinho, a player who has succumbed to the millions in Saudi Arabia, Liverpool have cast their nets over a new midfielder. It is André Trindade, also a Brazilian player who plays for Fluminense. Just a couple of days ago, Brazilian midfielder Fabinho joined the list of players leaving European football for a new era in Saudi Arabia. The 29-year-old midfielder headed for Al-Ittihad, who have invested around €45m in his signing and have also guaranteed him a very lucrative salary.

Although in previous weeks they had already signed the likes of Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, Liverpool are sure that, in the next few days, a new midfielder will arrive at Anfield Road to fill the space left by the former Real Madrid and AS Monaco player. In this sense, the newspaper As assures that the Reds are already taking decisive steps to acquire the services of André Trindade, a player who plays for Fluminense.

Although his cost could soar to €30-40m between fixed and bonus, the final price will always be below the more than €50m that Southampton have been demanding for the club's other great desire, Belgian Romeo Lavia. The 22-year-old midfielder stands out for his physical ability and defensive concepts, but also for his more than interesting vision and ball handling.

New nickname

Once capped by Brazil's senior national team, he has already made 145 official appearances for Flu (three goals and as many assists). Given the possibility of his arrival, social networks have begun to viralize the new nickname that Liverpool fans would give to this player, as they have begun to call him 'the new Fabinho' since his signing would be to replace the Brazilian who left for Arabia.
