Having arrived in 2021 from Sporting Portugal, Nuno Mendes has quickly shown that he has great qualities. Unsurprisingly, Paris Saint-Germain have sought to secure the future of the 22-year-old left-back by extending his contract, which expires in 2026. According to Florian Plettenberg, the link between Paris and the player is broken. Nuno Mendes is now looking for a way out.
It would be a thunderclap, but also a good reason for PSG to stick to its new project, by not paying excessive wages or giving in to blackmail. We mustn’t hold anyone back, it’s never worked.
PSG, in turn, must look to other profiles to make the player understand that he has no intention of giving in. Nuno Mendes clearly needs to be increased, but we also need to remember that the player still hasn’t had a full season under his belt and his performances are sometimes timid.
