The University of Chile has not yet closed its transfer window, and the name that excites both the board and the fans is Nicolás Fernández. The 22-year-old Uruguayan midfielder, currently at Progreso, acknowledged the club’s approaches and did not hide his astonishment at the magnitude of the Chilean institution, describing the interest as "truly crazy."
In a recent interview, the Uruguayan midfielder confessed that the passion of the blue fans took him by surprise. "I never expected so many people to reach out to me... I even get messages on WhatsApp," he said, visibly moved. Fernández is shaping up to be the final piece in Francisco Meneghini’s scheme, bringing youth and energy to a midfield that already features big names like Charles Aránguiz and Marcelo DÃaz.
A Uruguayan talent under the spotlight
Despite rumors also linking him to Liverpool in his home country, Fernández’s desire seems to be leaning towards Santiago. The Azul Azul board has already inquired about the Uruguayan international, who is looking to make the definitive leap to a South American giant.
