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. However, there has been talk of a possible move to Manchester United. According to PSG Inside Actus, the latest trend is the right one with the English club ruled out.
“Confirmation!!!
Nuno Mendes never intended to join Manchester united. The player has resumed extension talks. PSG are very confident. Other clubs have inquired about the player. But Paris never replied.”
We remain cautious, as there’s nothing official yet, and we’ve seen with this dossier that things can change quickly as long as there’s nothing concrete. However, this is the most likely outcome from the outset.
Let’s hope that PSG will be able to secure Nuno Mendes’ future, as great talent is rare in this position and the Portuguese has a special profile. Paris could well pull off some major coups, with deals already agreed for Achraf Hakimi (26-year-old right-back) and Vitinha (24-year-old midfielder) in particular.
