Manchester United Make Proposal For Top Rated Brazilian DM

Manchester United are looking to fix their defensive midfield position as Casemiro is currently injured and out for several months. Fluminense Andre Trindade is currently a target for Manchester United, who are looking to beat other big rivals in January.

Reports from Brazil suggest that Manchester United contacted Andre Trindade with a view to do a transfer in January, without having yet made an official offer to the parent club, but there is concrete interest in the defensive midfielder.

🇧🇷 ANALYSIS ON ANDRÉ’S TRINDADE:

Age: 21 years.

Current team: Fluminense.

André Trindade started playing as number 9 for Fluminense’s juniors but had no chance and started playing as number 10. He started playing closer to the defence, became number 8 and eventually became number 6, where he could play and also become the youth leader and captain of Fluminense.

André Trindade is often described as the best defensive midfielder in Brazil, he can dribble well, resists pressure, has an exceptional success rate, he is  ready to play in Europe.

Andrè is an extremely creative architect who moves the ball with miracles, André is a player very similar to a modern number 6.

What sets Andre’s game apart is the prevalence with which he passes the ball and at such a young age he is responsible for passing the ball well at Fluminense. That speaks volumes of his ability to have the ball. Since he often prefers to fit rather than wear, André finds the flawless counterpoise between security and furtherance

Andre is also an excellent match-winner and disports aggression when needed to help his team withstand attacks. His defensive positioning is also excellent, he has great spatial awareness which allows him to limit passing options and intercept the ball without catching it too often.

André Trindade can also play as a number 8, making him even more appealing to Erik Ten Hag who adores players with versatility.
