Having arrived in 2021 from Sporting Portugal, Nuno Mendes has quickly shown that he has great qualities. Unsurprisingly, Paris Saint-Germain wanted to secure the future of the 22-year-old left-back by extending his contract, which expires in 2026. But discussions have stalled with Manchester United, who would like to take advantage of the opportunity. According to Djamel, the Portuguese has a clear demand, and there’s no guarantee that an agreement will be reached.
A big salary demand!
“Nuno Mendes is demanding a salary in excess of €10m/year, believing that this is the amount deserved by an indisputable starter at PSG. So far, management has refused to match this demand.
If he gets what he wants, he’ll stay. If he refuses, a departure remains a possibility.
PSG has closed the door on any departure this winter.
As well as Manchester United, who have long had their eye on him, Liverpool are also keeping an eye on his situation.”
A salary around quintupled, that’s a nice demand if it’s confirmed. We’re remaining cautious, even if Djamel is generally reliable, it’s still just a rumour. So we’ll have to wait for certainty. There are still a lot of possible outcomes, so we’ll have to wait for certainties.
We have no doubt that PSG won’t let such a player go easily, especially in a position where great talent is rare. Now it’s a matter of negotiation.
