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.
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.
The 18-year-old Sporting Lisbon’s wonderkid is enjoying an excellent season with the Portuguese giants, with City reportedly considering a move for the left-back ahead of the summer transfer window.
According to Record_Portugal today as relayed by Sport_Witness, Nuno Mendes is now ‘closer to the exit’ at Sporting, who are ‘ready to lose’ the player.
The report adds that Mendes could be used in a deal for Pedro Porro, who is on-loan from Man City until 2022. The €8.5M option to make the Spaniard’s move permanent could be made along with the’ transfer.

Actually not a bad deal, sure Porro is probably worth more than that but our need for a LB is much bigger than RB and Mendes looks like a star in the making and so young still too.

He looked really good playing for Portugal, he’s good with his left and right foot and is good at crossing and is fast from the very little that I’ve seen

He was great in his portugal 2 games debut. In the last against serbia, it was his cross/assist that would have given us the victory if ronaldo’s cross had not been ruled out.
One more portuguese for you, and none let you down. With four you’ll compete with wolves 😂. Go for him— Daniel Monteiro (@dvazmonteiro) March 29, 2021
Wasn’t interested in this guy until his performance against Serbia. That’s pass to Ronaldo for the disallowed goal was outstanding.
