Recently, according to French media outlet L'Equipe, renowned agent Jorge
Mendes (name)
is simultaneously pushing Portugal's rising star midfielder
João Neves
transfer to another club (professional sports)
The deal that brought Mendes to Paris Saint-Germain and Ugarte to English Premier League giants Manchester United. This series of transfer operations not only shows the deep influence of Mendes in the football transfer market, but also triggered widespread concern about the future of the two Portuguese internationals.
Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly been interested in Joao Neves for a long time and have submitted an offer of around €70 million to Benfica. Both clubs have been engaged in intensive negotiations over the past few weeks and it now looks like a deal is on the cards. Paris Saint-Germain are looking to strengthen their midfield with the deal, while Benfica will likely use the funds for their team rebuilding efforts.
Meanwhile, Mendes is still trying to facilitate the transfer of Ugarte. As a young and promising player, Ugarte has attracted the attention of many European giants. Manchester United, a traditional power in the Premier League, are particularly interested in Ugarte. Mendes, as the joint agent of the two players, will play a key role in both deals.
It's worth noting that Mendes is also involved in the transfer of another Portuguese midfielder, Sanchez. Sanchez's loan spell at Roma did not go well and Paris Saint-Germain are now trying to sell him to Benfica as part of the Joao Neves deal. Such an arrangement would not only help Paris Saint-Germain balance their books financially, but also open up a new path for Sanchez's future.
These maneuvers by Mendes not only show his great skill in the transfer market, but they also signal that the upcoming transfer window could be filled with even more impressive deals. For Joao Neves and Ugarte, this is an important turning point in their careers, while for big clubs like Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United, this is an important opportunity for them to continue to compete and fight for top players.
As the transfer market continues to evolve, we look forward to seeing more details of these deals come to light, as well as these Portuguese internationals showing their talents in their new teams and bringing more excitement and passion to the world of soccer.
