Under sporting advisor Luis Campos, Paris Saint-Germain has forged a strong connection with Portugal, bringing in promising young talents like Vitinha, João Neves, and Gonçalo Ramos. Now, the club appears to be eyeing another potential addition.
The latest Portuguese prospect catching PSG’s attention is Sporting Lisbon’s 17-year-old Geovany Quenda. According to Foot Mercato, PSG, Manchester City, and Manchester United are all keeping tabs on the young talent.
Manchester United’s interest comes as no surprise, considering their manager, Rúben Amorim, recently made the move from Sporting.
Is Geovany Quenda’s agent pushing for a big move?
Quenda is attracting interest from some of Europe’s top clubs, including Manchester United, and TEAMtalk reports that his agent, Jorge Mendes, is working to secure him a high-profile transfer.
Sporting made sure to secure their future with the Portuguese winger by signing him to a new contract this summer. The deal, finalized in July, keeps him with the club until 2027 and includes an £84 million release clause.
CaughtOffside reported this week, citing sources, that Newcastle United are eyeing a move for Quenda. While the deal isn’t advanced yet, the report suggests Newcastle are preparing to ramp up their interest soon.
