There’s yet to be further movement on the transfer front and Fluminense’s recent result is expected to block any potential summer move for Andre.
Liverpool are just four days away from their opening Premier League game of the season and Jurgen Klopp has already admitted the formation in that game is temporary as the search for a No. 6 continues.
It is far removed from where we all thought the club would be as a midfield overhaul was long expected, and became all the more important after Fabinho and Jordan Henderson‘s departures.
That brought 22-year-old Andre of Fluminense into focus, a midfielder regarded as more of a controller, and claims of a formal £21.6 million offer made the rounds earlier this month.
However, reports in Brazil stated that a decision from Fluminense to let Andre go or not was not expected until after the second leg of their Copa Libertadores clash with Argentinos Juniors.
That day has now come and gone, with the Brazilian club advancing to the next round with a 3-1 aggregate win – which is to solidify their stance on the 22-year-old’s future.
