that's crazy
hope we get a good relationship with him like we do with Raiola
The only relationship Mendes understands is record breaking sums and huge agent fees. He has monopoly on Portuguese and South American players and most of it is facilitated through 3rd party companies that have big stakes in player rights.
That's how Atletico got so good quickly (revenue from selling most parts likes of Koke, Saul etc to Mendes affiliated companies) besides financial Wizz administration from Mendes pal Peter Kenyon. And how Porto Benfica, Monaco operates. He prefers dealing with big cheque EPL, PSG or Real for obvious reasons over likes of us. Mainly EPL where he made a killing since Porto won CL.
While Raiola is more Dutch, Italy and others focused agent in smaller scope. He doesn't have the operation that Mendes Gestitute company has.
