#2 He has been compared to CR7
Ronaldo may have endorsed the youngster, but he has not gone so far as to compare the AC Milan attacker with himself. Nevertheless, others have.
His former youth team coach, Alexandre Silva, certainly feels there are comparisons between the two players. “Andre has the capacity to play as an attacking spearhead but he is able to shine in other roles, too,” he explained to Maisfutebol.
“He has an incredible ability to change his speed, has good technique, plays with both feet easily and has an excellent scoring instinct.
“I’ve had hundreds of players on my hands, and this guy is special.”
Sound familiar?
Moreover, his incredible capacity to train and try to improve himself all the time mirrors that of the Real Madrid ace, who will go down as one of the outstanding players of his generation.
