At PSG, the time has come for contract extensions for several squad executives. The Nuno Mendes file is on the table of Parisian leaders. However, the greed of the player and his agent Jorge Mendes, although close to the club’s football advisor Luis Campos, would greatly complicate the negotiations. So much so that Nuno Mendes is reportedly eyeing a move to Manchester United.
Luis Campos became football advisor to PSG on June 10, 2022. Since then, the Portuguese leader has tried as best he can to draw the contours of a sporting project based on the development of young talents, while shielding the executives of the Paris Saint–Germain what have become Ashraf Hakimi or even Vitinha lately. Nuno Mendes continues to gain weight inside the locker room and in the starting lineup Luis Enrique lately.
Unsatisfied with PSG’s contract offer, Nuno Mendes would look to Manchester United
Enough to encourage the PSG steering committee managed by Luis Campos to try to get him to sign an extension of his contract running until June 2026. However, RMC Sport revealed last week that Nuno Mendes would now like to leave the Paris Saint–Germain despite advanced discussions between the parties concerned.
The cause? Salary offers considered too low by the 22-year-old Portuguese left-back. A trend confirmed by the English journalist Peter Hall these last few hours. And yet, the Paris Saint–Germain would have been ready to do Mendes one of the highest paid full-backs in the world.
Did Luis Campos bring Jorge Mendes?
Jorge Mendesagent of Nuno Mendeswould raise the stakes. Which would greatly complicate the affairs of the Paris Saint–Germain and would begin to encourage the Portuguese international to start thinking about Manchester United. Luis Campos nevertheless enjoys a very close relationship with Jorge Mendes.
This movement on the part of the Portuguese agent could be perceived as pure and harsh betrayal by the football advisor of the PSG. For the simple reason that Jorge Mendeswhich has its entries at Manchester Unitedwould work on this operation for which the Red Devils would be forced to downsize their squad before the end of the transfer market in order to be able to accommodate Nuno Mendes according to the journalist Peter Hall.
