Manchester United<\/a> transfer target Nuno Mendes is no longer looking for a move away from Paris Saint-Germain <\/a>and is set to extend his stay at Parc des Princes, according to reports.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old joined\u00a0PSG\u00a0in a \u00a334 million deal from Sporting CP in May 2022 after impressing during a season-long loan with the French club.<\/p>\n

Mendes came through Sporting\u2019s academy and was handed his first-team debut by\u00a0Ruben Amorim<\/a>\u00a0in June 2020. <\/p>\n

He then played a key role under Amorim the following season as Sporting went on to win the Primeira Liga and the Taca da Liga.<\/p>\n

That relationship with Amorim saw Mendes identified as one of United’s top targets <\/a>to solve their issues on the left side of their defence and their hopes were boosted when the Portuguese international rejected a contract offer from PSG.<\/p>\n

However, according to L\u2019\u00c9quipe<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0Mendes has now ‘closed the door’ on a potential departure from PSG and is set to sign a new deal to extend his stay beyond 2026 when his current contract expires.<\/p>\n

The report adds that PSG boss Luis Enrique was instrumental in convincing Mendes to stay at the club, with the Spaniard viewing the full-back as key to his project.<\/p>\n

United were also interested in a deal for PSG striker Randal Kolo Muani, but the Frenchman has now joined Juventus on loan until the end of the season.<\/p>\n

Red Devils’ have also been credited with a move for Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies whose contract is set to expire in the summer.<\/p>\n

However, like Mendes, the Canadian also looks set to spurn a move to Old Trafford in favour of a new contract with is current club. <\/p>\n

United’s financial position is such that outoings in January and the summer may be required to raise funds for a signifcant revamp of Amorim’s squad.<\/p>\n

In particular, the club may consider letting go of some of their prized academy graduates, with Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho two players that Untied would consider offers for.<\/p>\n

Mainoo has already attracted interest from both Chelsea and Bayern Munich<\/a>, while Chelsea are also said to have enquired about a move for Garnacho<\/a> to strengthen their wide attacking options. <\/p>\n
