Outlining the three players Juventus and Jorge Mendes are negotiating over
According to a host of Italian sources and as previously reported by calciomercato.com, absolutely yes.
Representatives from the Serie A giants met Jorgé Mendes during the Champions League quarter final tie Benfica-Bayern Munich last Wednesday when the two parties are believed to have talked about Mendes’ client Renato Sanchez. The 19-year-old central midfielder has a € 50 million released clause and his side Benfica have already rejected Manchester United’s € 40 million bid.
The Old Lady is also interested in signing Valencia’s André Gomes, another name in Mendes’ endless client list.
Yet again, the former Napoli target has been linked with a move to Manchester United as well but with José Mourinho who may not become the Red Devil’s manager next season, the bianconeri could have a chance to sign the 22-year-old midfielder.
The last name on Juventus’ wish-list is Rodrigo Bentancur. As we previously reported, Juventus have an option to sign the talented 18-year-old midfielder for a fee in the region of € 10 million. Trouble is, Mendes wants to acquire the player’s economic rights for € 15 million before deciding where to sell one of the most exciting talents of South American football.
Boca Junior’s president Daniel Angelici has recently revealed Benfica and Real Madrid have already made an offer to sign the Uruguayan wonderkid.
