Liverpool is reportedly feeling confident about securing the services of Fluminense midfielder Andre when the January transfer window opens. This 22-year-old player was previously linked to a move to Anfield during the summer, but the transfer market closed with him remaining in Rio de Janeiro.

Now, once again, there's speculation about Andre's future, with Arsenal also reportedly interested in the midfielder. It's likely that he will be on the move at the start of 2024. According to Football Insider, Liverpool is expected to win the race for the Brazilian in January, while Arsenal may face frustration in their attempts to acquire him.

Arsenal's strong position was influenced by the presence of his Brazilian teammates Gabriel Magalhaes, Gabriel Martinelli, and Gabriel Jesus at the club, along with the sporting director Edu. However, Liverpool remains optimistic about their chances of bringing Andre to Anfield when the winter transfer window opens.

Andre currently has a contract with Fluminense that runs until the end of 2026. He has made 157 appearances for his current side, scoring four goals and providing three assists.

Fluminense is set to compete in the Copa Libertadores final against Boca Juniors in early November, and Andre will be determined to help his team win the trophy.

During the recent international break, Andre was part of the Brazil squad. He made a substitute appearance against Venezuela on October 13 and was expected to start against Uruguay due to an ankle problem for Casemiro. However, Casemiro ultimately returned to play the full 90 minutes against Uruguay and will not participate in his club's clash with Sheffield United this weekend.

Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool's manager, is reportedly keen on bringing Andre to the team as he looks to strengthen his midfield, which has undergone changes recently.
