Anderson Hernanes de Carvalho Viana Lima (born 29 May 1985), commonly known as Hernanes is a Brazilian midfielder who currently plays for Italian side Lazio.

Hernanes can be used as a playmaker in the centre attacking midfield role. He is notable for his ambidexterity, as well as being neat and tidy in possession, with the ability to spray the ball out wide in order to stretch play.[1] He is also an accurate and powerful striker of the ball.[2]

Club career [edit]

Born in Aliança, Hernanes is a product of the São Paulo academy and has played for them since 2001. He was loaned out to Santo André for the 2006 season. In 2008, as a São Paulo player, Hernanes won the Prêmio Craque do Brasileirão's best player award.

In January 2009, Hernanes was listed as the most promising football player in the world by the British newspaper, The Times.[3]

Lazio [edit]

On 6 August 2010, São Paulo agreed to sell Hernanes to Lazio.[4] Hernanes signed a five-year contract.[5] Lazio also paid €11.1 million[6] to São Paulo and third-parties owner Traffic Group.[7] He scored on his debut, putting away a penalty in a practice match against Deportivo La Coruña, having previously been brought down in the box. He also assisted Sergio Floccari for Lazio's third goal. His first Serie A goal was also on a penalty, against Bologna in another 3–1 victory. On 3 December 2010 he scored the third goal in a 3–1 win over Internazionale with a free kick. He concluded the season with 11 goals equal to Lazio's best midfielder's goal scorer in one season, superstar Czech international Pavel Nedved.

The 2012–13 season has seen Hernanes with Miroslav Klose become a formidable pair. Lazio, who currently sit third in the Serie A standings have found in Hernanes a good luck charm, where they have not lost a game when the Brazilian international scored. Hernanes has become a pivotal part of the Lazio squad, especially under new Lazio coach Vladimir Petković, where he starts week and week out playing consistently amongst Lazio's best. His goal scoring record is also improved as well as vision and gameplay. Hernanes has been a revelation for his Lazio so far this season attracted attention from bigger european clubs such as Bayern München and Juventus.

International career [edit]

Hernanes received his first International red card in a game against France after challenging for the ball against Karim Benzema mid-air but accidentally missing the ball and getting Benzema in the right area of his chest. Hernanes was once again called up by the new brazilian coach Luis Scolari to the game against Italy at Geneva a game that ended 2-2. Hernanes was substitued at the end of the game.
