The Portugal international is one of a few names on Man Utd’s radar at the moment as new manager Ruben Amorim looks to strengthen that area of his squad. Mendes has shone at PSG, and the Ligue 1 giants are keen to tie him down to a new contract as his current deal is due to expire in summer 2026. See below as Florian Plettenberg provides the latest details on Mendes’ future on his official account on X, pointing out that the 22-year-old also shares an agent with Red Devils manager Amorim.
.. Mendes could certainly be an exciting option for United, giving them a clear upgrade on someone like Luke Shaw, who has struggled with both fitness and form for some time now.
Nuno Mendes transfer: The ideal option for Manchester United? MUFC fans will all have their own ideas about , and it’s worth noting that Plettenberg also mentions two exciting talents in Alphonso Davies and Theo Hernandez. Still, Mendes perhaps looks the best fit for Amorim’s style of football, as his attacking qualities mean he could thrive in a left wing-back role for the United manager. Mendes’ contract situation could also mean he’s available for a cut-price fee in the months ahead, as PSG won’t want to run the risk of losing him on a free in a year and a half.
United are having a difficult season, even if Amorim’s side enjoyed a surprise 2-1 win away to rivals Manchester City in the Manchester Derby at the weekend, so there’s surely going to be a big effort to make changes to this squad soon. Amorim has inherited a difficult situation at Old Trafford, and he’d surely welcome a signing like Mendes to fit into his system..
