Manchester City Fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relays reports of another update on the club’s interest in Sporting Lisbon left-back Nuno Mendes.
The 18-year-old is enjoying an excellent season with the Portuguese giants, who are currently nine points clear at the top of the Primeira Liga.
Nuno Mendes, who has been with Sporting from the age of 10, only made his senior first-team debut under a year ago and has already attracted scouts from elite clubs across the continent.
Portuguese newspaper Record last week reported that City have ‘initiated exploratory contacts’ with Sporting Lisbon over the possible signing of the left-back.
Report early this week from Spanish Newspaper AS, claims Pep Guardiola has ‘given the go-ahead’ for the City management to try and sign the promising left-back.
The Cityzens are reportedly in ‘pole position’ for the defender despite interest from Juventus, Milan and Napoli, thanks to an extra factor, which is Pedro Porro.
According to Portuguese newspaper A Bola as relayed by Sport Witness, Sporting Lisbon ‘admit’ they will end up selling Nuno Mendes ‘soon‘, but have set a ‘high‘ price for him of over €50 million.
