* **Shuttler:** Shuttler Midfielders are defensively focused players who contribute in all phases of the game, moving around in defense and attack and specializing in ball stealing.

André is a strong player, capable of covering the entire field through his mobility and stamina. He tends to function as an extra defensive player, dropping back close to the goalkeeper to help the team with the start of the play and still has a high technical level of ball control, which allows him to pass by his opponents anywhere on the field. He is a player who completely dominates the midfield and defensive sector.

### Skills

**Professional Football Technique:** André has caught the attention of world football for his consistency over the past two years. The press says he is a 40-year-old in the body of a 20-year-old, such is the coolness, confidence and experience he seems to have. He often receives the ball inside his own defensive area, pressured by one or more opposing attackers, and he drives the ball as if he had no one behind him. In addition, he is a very versatile player who has played as a center-back at various times. Newcomer to Spanish football, he has attention from all the big European leagues, but mainly from the English league.

**Genius of Tackles:** André Trindade is primarily a defender, with high tackles rates. He wastes no time risking tackles on his feet, and often sneaks up behind an opponent, stealing the ball so he can dribble away. His sliding tackle techniques are also equally accurate.

**Unlimited Stamina:** André is able to run throughout the match and maintain his pace until the final minutes. He believes that this is due not only to his physical preparation with regular training, but also to playing sports on the beach, ensuring more resistance.

**Tactical Dribbling:** Despite the defensive position, André stood out in Brazilian football by being in the top 3 of the players who hit the most dribbles in the 2021-22 season. As many of these dribbles are in the defensive sector to attract opponents to their defense field, the skill was nicknamed tactical dribble.

* **Shield Force:** André masterfully protects the ball using his arms and spins to push players away. And because of his strength and balance, he hardly loses these physical disputes.
* **Reverse Spin:** When with his back to an opposing player, André uses the sole of his foot to threaten a spin, but quickly cuts it off with a small jump and pulling the ball in with his other foot, fooling the opponent as to which way he will go.
* **Charging Skill:** André makes long runs with the ball making it look like it's stuck to his foot. Through his physical imposition, he manages to do this by leaving several opponents behind.

**Passing Accuracy:** It is true that André is not usually involved in key passes and assists in the offensive sector, although we know of his ability to do so. On the other hand, we hardly see him miss short passes after his dribbles and tackles. He is a player whose basic fundamentals are very level.

**Concentration:** A feature that is not very flashy, but which defines André's style of play very well is his concentration. He never stops running and always believes he can win the play. A player who is always alert on the pitch.

**Flow State (Complete):** When André reaches his maximum concentration stage, his vision tends to become more focused and his behavior more instinctive. He is hungry to make a perfect tackle that will allow him to progress the ball forward. In this state, he starts to risk more shots for the goal.
