For the 2015 season, Sporting Cristal came from being the national champion in the previous year and was seen as the favorite in that year's final where they crossed paths with FBC Melgar.
However, the 'celestes' could not stand against Juan Reynoso's team and succumbed in the second leg match played at the UNSA Stadium in Arequipa by 3-2 (1st leg 2-2) and thus, 'Rojinegro' won the 2015 Descentralizado Championship.

Without a doubt, Fernández had already reached his peak in Peruvian football and it was time to test himself in a more demanding tournament, and that's why in 2017 he joined the ranks of Club Puebla in Mexico, where they continue to maintain a certain regularity to this day.
Now established in Mexico, the player has earned a place in 'La Franja' and his international value has skyrocketed, as he is currently valued at 3.50 million euros in the market, according to Transfermarkt.
