Arriving at the summer transfer window in July 2022, Nuno Mendes, 22-year-old left back and under contract until June 2026, is sometimes frustrating because of injuries which recur quite often. But he managed to impress everyone on the pitch and is expected to sign a contract extension soon according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, as Achraf Hakimi (26-year-old right side) recently.
“PSG is getting closer to finalizing the agreement with Nuno Mendes for a new contract!
The final details are being ironed out as the new contract will run until 2029, part of Luis Campos' plan as PSG trust Nuno for the future.
Hakimi and Nuno Mendes will extend. »
For Hakimi, there is no longer the slightest doubt and we are mainly waiting for the official communication. Obviously, Nuno Mendes is almost at the same point. Another very good news, with a very talented player who is gradually establishing himself among the references in his position.
He also shows with Portugal and PSG that he can occupy a more defensive role, even if it is frustrating to see as we know his offensive qualities. There is also a fragility that must be corrected.
But there is plenty to believe in Nuno Mendes, while very high-level full-backs are rather rare. Let's hope that this extension will be confirmed.
