Is this guy legit? If so it sounds like the keys to the club have been handed to Mendes.

People question whether or not Levy is able to give over power to Paratici, theres no chance Mendes will get any.

My bet is more like we think we can use him, and sooner or later will fall out with him once he tries to wrest control of things.
 
Why is this Jorge Mendes guy so important? I don't get it!

It's like something out of the godfather for fuck sake.

Is he mafia or what? What exactly does he control, and how does he do it. Does he have people killed off?

So many questions!
 
Basically any player in the Portuguese league. And Mendes as relations with almost every other big agent in the game. I don’t like him but he makes things happen. And can inflate any sale. But there’s always his commissions. He’s a mobster.

Bits I have read in the past about him make him sounds like he has tentacles in every part of football. Not sure if it’s good to have him as an enemy or a friend.

From what I have read about him the past (might be BS) he has a large number of players but he also has control and influence on other agents. The ultimate fixer, he can make things happen or stop things. I guess Levy may think getting into bed with him can fix the squad cheaply who knows.

That's the only sense I can make of it.... A short term rinse before saying "meh; what special relationship.... there's nothing in writing".... Bit like us and RMadrid.
