"I have played in more than one position in midfield at Chelsea. Casemiro plays in a role equal to that of Moises Caicedo, with whom I have played several times. And they're even similar in style of play. It's two players that make it easy for you to play."
"I am more complete now. I learned to behave better tactically, to know when to press, to cover the spaces better, to position myself better on the field. The technique will always be with you, but you evolve in all aspects: tactical, physical and technical. The Andrey of 2023 is different from the Andrey of 2026."
Andrey Santos has become a key midfielder for Chelsea under Liam Rosenior, boasting the fourth-highest success rate of line-breaking passes in the Premier League this season, surpassing Manchester City's Rodri. Santos recently compared his partnership with Chelsea teammate Moises Caicedo to his experience playing alongside Manchester United midfielder Casemiro, highlighting their similar tactical approaches and how both players facilitate easier performances. With World Cup selection on his horizon, Santos emphasizes his tactical and physical evolution, crediting his adaptability and improved positioning, pressing awareness, and spatial coverage for his development since 2023.
