Manchester United eyeing January move for PSG star Nuno Mendes as full-back seeks exit after derisory wage offer from Ligue 1 giants

Manchester United are in serious need of recruitment of a left-back or wing-back for Ruben Amorim as the Red Devils only have the sevices of Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia available this season. With the former rarely being fit for action and the latter disappointing since his return to action following his injury, the Red Devils are keen on signing a left-back with Mendes having been earmarked as a potential option.

Manchester United have now made an offer to Paris Saint-Germain for Mendes as they are keen to sign their main target for the January transfer window as per Fabrice Hawkins of RMC Sport. The report has suggested that the Portuguese international is interested by the potential of moving to Old Trafford as he is unhappy at Parc des Princes.

Mendes' contract at PSG runs until 2026 and the French giants have been looking to extend the left-back's contract. However, the 22-year-old is not happy with the wages he has been offered by the Ligue 1 champions and has felt disrespected. Hence, Mendes is very keen on exiting the club in January or in the summer of 2025.

A potential transfer fee has not been mentioned in the report by Hawkins, however, the highly-rated full-back is unlikely to come cheap. With Manchester United's financial struggles after the summer, it will have to be seen whether the Red Devils can actually go through with the move.
