This is news that did not delight Parisian supporters. At the end of December, RMC Sport assured that Nuno Mendes’ extension at Paris Saint-Germain was at a standstill and that the player wanted to leave the club. With a contract binding him until June 2026, this would mean a very likely departure during the 2025 summer transfer window, just to collect transfer compensation.
Nuno Mendes is not satisfied with the salary conditions proposed by PSG, but the capital club is not overly worried, seeing this as the usual game of negotiations. However, according to our information, the Portuguese left-back has a very specific idea in mind. Indeed, he is very interested in the idea of joining Ruben Amorim at Manchester United.
Nuno Mendes wants to find Ruben Amorim
The English press regularly reports the Portuguese coach’s request to his managers to bring Nuno Mendes back to him as quickly as possible. There will be no chance of this happening in January, while the Mancunian management rather chase costs than sign checks. On the other hand, an offensive will be launched next summer, even if between now and the summer transfer window, PSG plans to continue discussions for a possible extension.
Nuno Mendes, aged 22, had loved working under Ruben Amorim during his time at Sporting CP, and finding him in an English championship where his qualities will be highlighted seems like an excellent prospect. This will therefore further complicate PSG’s plans regarding a possible extension. But it remains to be seen whether Manchester United will be able to convince the capital club next summer.
