When he arrived from Sporting Portugal at the very end of the transfer window last summer, in the form of a loan with an option to buy, Nuno Mendes already raised a lot of hopes.
After a convincing season for the young left-back who will turn 20 on June 19, the capital club has decided to exercise the option and announced his final transfer on Tuesday.
Here is the Portuguese now linked to the Parisian club until June 30, 2026.
After a paying loan of €7m, Paris therefore decided to pay out €40m to secure the services of the man who moved to the position long left vacant by Juan Bernat, who had returned from injury.
For his first season, Nuno Mendes played 37 games and sent two assists.
In the race for the trophy for the best hope of the last Ligue 1 season, he was overtaken by the Marseillais William Saliba.
On the other hand, he is in the standard team of the season.
