Fernandez was crowned Young Player of the Tournament in the Middle East, featuring in all seven matches for Lionel Scaloni's side. He started the first two matches on the bench, but was named in the starting line-up for the following five games.
When asked about his future, Fernandez played down the speculation linking him with a move to the Reds, or any other club for that matter.
"I don't know anything about that," said Fernandez, via Ge Globo.com. "It's up to my agent, I don't want to get involved.
"I'm focused on Benfica, in a few days we have an important game. I have a flight at night to play in the game on Friday."
Benfica resume their domestic campaign on Friday against Braga. Roger Schmidt's side currently sit first in the Primeira Liga table having won 12 of their opening 13 matches. Fernandez has made 24 appearances in all competitions, registering three goals and five assists.
