André Trindade da Costa Neto (born 16 July 2001), simply known as André, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Fluminense and the Brazil national team.

Club career

Born in Algodão, Ibirataia, Bahia, André joined Fluminense's youth setup in 2013, aged 12.[2] On 21 February 2020, he renewed his contract with the club until 2023.[3]

André made his professional debut on 16 September 2020, coming on as a late substitute for Dodi in a 1–0 home win over Atlético Goianiense, for the year's Copa do Brasil.[4] His first Série A occurred four days later, as he started in a 0–1 away loss against Sport Recife.

André scored his first professional goal on 4 July 2021, netting a last-minute winner in a 1–0 away success over rivals Flamengo.[5] On 4 October, he further extended his contract until the end of 2024.[6] André, 21, completed his hundredth game for the Laranjeiras club, on 1 October 2022, against Atletico-MG, in Mineirão.[7]

On 24 August 2023, he scored the first goal in a 2–0 win over Olimpia in his 150th match with Fluminense during the Copa Libertadores quarter-finals.[8] Later that year, on 4 November, he started in the Copa Libertadores final with Fluminense against Boca Juniors, which ended in a 2–1 victory after extra time, to be his club's first title in that competition.[9]

International career

André was included in the 55-man preliminary squad of Brazil by coach Tite for the 2022 FIFA World Cup.[10] On 20 June 2023, he made his international debut, coming off the bench in the 74th minute to substitute Lucas Paquetá, in a 4–2 defeat in a friendly match against Senegal.[11]
