Andre, a midfielder with Manchester United ties who is “really liked” by key Anfield personnel, is reportedly still a target for Liverpool…..
During the summer transfer window, Liverpool completely revamped their midfield, spending £13.50 million to sign Alexis MacAllister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo, and Ryan Gravenberch.
In spite of this, they were unable to find Fabinho a replacement for a top-tier defensive midfielder. Even though Endo, 30, is undoubtedly the greatest candidate for this position, he is probably only seen as a rotational choice.
During the summer transfer window, Andre, a promising defensive midfielder, was frequently linked to Liverpool and Manchester United.
It has been reported that Fluminense is reportedly unwilling to let the 22-year-old depart before the Copa Libertadores tournament concludes in November because he has established himself as an important member of the team.
Despite this, it was asserted last month that Andre and Liverpool had already “agreed terms.” The player’s current deal includes a €40.95 million release clause, according to the Brazilian publication Lance.

Now, according to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool “will keep monitoring the player” and will “keep an eye on” his circumstances.
Romano stated on his Here We Go podcast that “it’s not over; it’s still something we have to keep an eye on because Liverpool really like Andre.” “They had productive discussions with Fluminense; their connections are strong.
Credit to Fluminense for demonstrating their dominance in the Brazilian and South American markets by stating that the player would not be departing.
“It was not simple, but I believe Liverpool will continue to keep an eye on the guy. This player is unique; he or she is not a typical player. Andre is a really talented player.
Mario Bittencourt, the president of Fluminense, recently disclosed that he has been in “direct” touch with Liverpool and that they can “start talking” about Andre in December.
“There is an agreement between us, with the player and representative, that he would stay until the end of the year and they fully comply and with the utmost tranquillity,” Bittencourt said to ESPN.
“What they have accomplished is their work as an athlete’s agent, which entails informing Fluminense of any incoming polling.
“I go even further when it comes to Liverpool. The CEO of Liverpool got in touch with me immediately. My friend, I don’t sell players right now, and I don’t deliver either, I said to him.
“If you want to buy now to take in January, we can start talking, or if you want to wait until December, and we talk in December.”
