Matheus Nunes

[FantasyIreland]

The only way I see him playing for City would be if Guardiola takes Gundo down to 6 and Matheus Nunes takes his place.

Gundogan could also leave.

Exactly, what I said before: a CM, not a DM. And using Gundogan as a 6 reserve would be a stupid idea imo. Best to get a real DM. Nunes could come if we’re also looking for an 8, but I am not sure these links are reliable at all. (A note for certain posters: Nunes was born in Brazil…)

The only source you have to believe coming from Portugal and which has a good link with Sporting is "Record". I think we have an interest in Matheus Nunes but we are far from what sources like "Abola" say (example: this summer we are going to make an offer of 40M for Nunes). But if we really want an 8 for me Nunes in terms of quality / price we can not do better

Record was also pushing a story about Nuno Mendes prior to last summer. Usually, it’s more reliable to believe the English sources than the sources from the other clubs’ countries. I agree that 40M doesn’t sound correct

nuno mendes is a baller though, would've been a great buy

I think he’s not been that great at PSG yet, but still very young

 

[footballmanager]

i disagree, hes been extremely good, specially when you take his age into account.

Related to nunes, id say that guardiola going out of his way to talk about the dude says all it needs to be said about city being interested. Even more so that hes not even close to being an household name

Pep praises many, many players

true but most of them are obvious names. nunes not even the most well known sporting player (that would be pedro gonçalves and hell, even porro) its possible that im wrong but it sounded a bit too specific .

Voici quelques images du dernier match de Nunes quand il joue plus bas comme un 6. Très bonne capacité à créer des occasions avec peu

I come back to Nuno Mendes stories last year from the same papers. Such a deja vu. I think Pep wants FDJ, but maybe if we sign two like @tolmie's hairdoo thinks we could…

Thanks mate. Personally Tchouaméni is my first choice but I would 100% take De Jong.

I’d like Tchouameni too but haven’t been hearing much noise there

Yeah, there have been some reports but the concrete links are to Liverpool unfortunately.

 

[birchwoodgingerste]

Gundogs replacement i reckon.

maybe, hes definitely not a dm though, which is the position we should actually bring someone for

I think the club are looking for a box to box player, which he definitely is.

Somebody who can be like a 6 or 8, that's why De Jong has been linked as well, he could do both.

Can always go with a midfield 2, and a 10 in front (we do this basically anyways), and pair Nunes with say Bernie and I'd be happy with that.

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

seem to be a fair few reports on this nunes guy being linked with ourselves

@BrazilianBlue (Gus)

Any traction in this one? Sure I read somewhere that we held enquiries over him at some point.

He stats are up there for a CM

Just have a feeling it’s yet another player the Portuguese media is fed links from an agent to hype him up. Pep giving them a quote on him only makes it more likely typical paper fantasy, like with Nuno Mendes, Darwin Nunez and others. There’s also a bit of me having watched him a lot and not seeing “City” there. But please make up your own mind, I don’t want some of the posters here to do what they’re already doing in another thread by creating an image of me as an “influencer” to fit their negative narratives.
