The forward also seems to possibly be on his way out from the club, as the club just brought in the likes of Sheraldo Becker as a new striker, with even less play time being available for Fernandez moving forward. With only two weeks until the end of the transfer window, it will be interesting to see what happens with the striker within that span.
