Barcelona Standout on PSG’s Radar if €70M-Rated Star Leaves for Man Utd

The January transfer window will give Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim his first chance to shape the squad in line with his vision. However, the biggest changes are expected next summer, with Amorim reportedly eyeing a potential signing from Paris Saint-Germain.

United’s acquisition of Manuel Ugarte from PSG last summer has proven successful, with the midfielder thriving under Amorim’s leadership. Now, the Portuguese manager is said to be targeting a reunion with Nuno Mendes, a player he worked with at Sporting Lisbon.

According to CaughtOffside, Manchester United remains highly interested in Mendes, who is reportedly intrigued by the move after conversations with his representatives.

If the 22-year-old doesn’t secure a contract extension at PSG, the club could be open to offers of around €70 million during the summer window.

Does PSG have a plan should Nuno Mendes depart?

Journalist Matteo Moretto reports that PSG are closely monitoring Barcelona’s Alejandro Balde ahead of the summer should Mendes depart.
