According to reports, Arsenal will compete with Liverpool for Fluminense midfielder Andre Trindade, with the Reds having long-standing admiration for the player.
The 22-year-old, who this summer was strongly linked with a move to Liverpool, is reportedly being pursued by Arsenal, according to journalist Thiago Ferreira.
However, Fluminense, who was competing in the Copa Libertadores at the time, was unwilling to let their star player, Andre, leave, even for a reported fee of £34 million.
This January, however, is going to be a completely different story because Andre is expected to leave Fluminese for a move to Europe, with Arsenal now competing with Liverpool for the young player.
The Gunners have a history of bringing in players straight out of Brazil, most recently bringing in star winger Gabriel Martinelli in 2019 when he was just a teenager.
And Mikel Arteta might now be prepared to sign Andre, another promising Brazilian player, which would be a major setback for Liverpool’s summer plans.
Simply put, Liverpool must outbid Arsenal for Andre in January.
With how highly regarded Andre is becoming with each passing week, Liverpool cannot let Arsenal sign the midfielder before them.
Given Liverpool’s lack of depth in central midfield following this summer’s transactions, the Brazilian is a dream acquisition for the Anfield side in January.
Arsenal will be a tempting destination for Andre, but Liverpool might be a better fit for the budding superstar who could become a star at Anfield in the future.

Liverpool is allegedly interested in a Brazilian defender.
Still looking for a defender is the Reds.With a brand-new midfield but no additional defenders, Liverpool closed the summer transfer window with a bang.
It’s obvious that the center-back position needs to be filled with fresh talent.
The injury table is a point of contention for 32-year-old captain Virgil van Dijk’s teammates Ibrahima Konaté and Jol Matip like it’s the final musical chair.
Although Liverpool hasn’t historically done much business in the winter, they have been known to make exceptions if the need is great enough or the player is talented enough.
The ideal illustration of that would be van Dijk himself, with whom the Reds finally agreed to a contract in January 2018.
The Brazilian player Lucas Beraldo is one that Klopp and company are reportedly considering right now to fill the need in defense.
Currently, Beraldo represents Sao Paulo in his native Brazil.
The English and European teams are reportedly interested in him, according to the Brazilian media.
In addition to the Reds, Wolves and Newcastle United are also rumored to be contenders, and teams like Porto, Benfica, and Monaco are also being mentioned. The center back, who is 19 years old and also plays for Brazil’s U20 team, made his team debut last year.
He wouldn’t be the player vying for position next to van Dijk if he did make it to Merseyside.
Up until Klopp saw evidence of his abilities, he would hold down at least fourth place in the pecking order.
He might have been a good long-term project and a nice fit for the team, according to the scouting reports.
It’s possible, but it’s more likely that they’re just spreading false information and will soon disappear from the map.
