I saw this article posted in the Joao Felix thread
https://en.as.com/en/2019/06/29/football/1561795799_628325.html
Every summer there's weird stuff going on with transfers from Portuguese football. United obviously have first hand experience of this with the Bebe debacle a few years back.
You have the Portuguese press hyping up players and linking them constantly with sides like United only for these moves to be completely fabricated. Felix was linked with a big money move to City and United in the Portuguese press only to go to a club with strong Mendes links for an absurd fee.
Then we have Bruno Fernandes, linked with United every day but there seems to be no real interest there. City were strangely keen to make it known that they have no interest in the player. Is there some Mendes influence here, will we see him move to a Mendes club for a massive fee? He seems to be represented by an agency called Positionnumber so maybe some of our Portuguese posters know if there's a link?
