It is understood that a relevant person recommended Fernando to the Taishan team. Although Fernando has not participated in the game for a long time, the little motorcycle has done great harm to the team in the Chinese Super League. And, due to the right age, Shandong Taishan team should give Fernando a tryout at 30. And, if he can be added, his status will be as an inside backer, not taking up a foreigner slot. If Fernando can return to the form of that year, it will greatly improve Shandong's forward attacking ability, especially the wing speed.
As for Fernando's current situation, Zhu Yi, the administrator of Der Spin China, also said that Fernando has been in a free status since he terminated his contract with Guangzhou at the beginning of 2022. Coupled with previous injuries and other reasons, his last game was Guangzhou's 2-0 away win over Cangzhou Lions on May 9, 2021, which was also his only game that year. It's been over 680 days.
Fernando is still a citizen of the People's Republic of China and is eligible to be selected for the Chinese national team. However, due to various reasons, he always misses the chance to play for the Chinese team. In a previous interview, Fernando had said, I believe that through my hard work, I can get a call-up to the national team and then participate in the Asian Cup. If Fernando can successfully return to the Chinese Super League, it will also be good news for the Asian Cup tour early next year.
