Since 2022, Nuno Mendes (23 years old) has worn the colors of PSG. A club to which he did not hesitate to say yes, as he explained during an interview with West France. “It was another country, another language, but I was lucky to have (Portuguese) Danilo here, he helped me a lot. I quickly tried to speak French to get out of the house. It’s a big club with great players, I wanted to be part of it.” Last year, it was extended to 2029 (with an optional year). If rumors have mentioned interests, notably from Manchester United, the Portuguese has denied.
“No. My agent spoke a lot with the president, I always wanted to continue here, to put PSG at a high level. Both sides wanted it. It’s a pleasure to play here.” Happy in the capital, Nuno Mendes always dreams bigger, he who finished 10th in the last Ballon d'Or. “I am very happy for Ousmane (DembĂ©lĂ©). I concentrate on my work. Afterwards, if I manage to win individual trophies, that's always good. But before getting to that, I think the collective is the most important.” And he will have plenty to do with PSG and Portugal.
