Very close to PSG, where he manages the interests of half of the locker room, Jorge Mendes is busy behind the scenes to close a hot file of the moment. It concerns one of his players, Manuel Ugarte.
When it comes to a transfer to PSG, Jorge Mendes is never far away… The Portuguese agent takes care of the interests of a large part of the Parisian locker room. And his influence within the club is enormous. Difficult to do without him when there is talk of a transfer and Luis Campos seems to have all his confidence in him. No surprise to see him, once again, at the helm of a big summer file.
Operation Ugarte
In recent hours, Jorge Mendes has been handling a file that could bring big returns to PSG. It concerns Uruguayan midfielder Manuel Ugarte, who is part of the Gestifute team, Jorge Mendes’ company. Manchester United sent a first offer, which helped trigger hostilities.
Atletico Madrid on the lookout
For now, Manchester United’s offer is not enough to convince PSG to let go of their player. But Jorge Mendes is leading discussions with the various parties to try to find an agreement. At the same time, Diego Simeone continues to want to recruit Manuel Ugarte to Atletico Madrid… PSG, who bought Ugarte for 60 million euros a year ago, hopes to get a big deal at 75 million euros.
