Mendez is going to be involved at one level or another; he is Lamouchi's agent.
It is worth noting that despite rumours of a fall out between EM and Mendez, which is rumoured to have originated with the transfer of Podence in January, Lamouchi went on to sign the contract extension a Month ago.
Whatever their differences are, they are nor preventing them from acting in a professional manner.
And there is obviously no pressure being applied to Lamouchi to play Carvalho either.
I am not sure how big a part he has played in our recruitment.
We know he represents Carvalho, Goncalves and Dias, and he would probably have contacts with Semedo via Benfica but Ribeiro, Silva and Figueredo all have different agents who compete with Mendez.
We look a lot better without his help.
Yeah, it has gone horribly wrong for Wolves as well dealing with Mendes :D
They have put in the capital for players though, that is the difference, in this world you get what you pay for.
Not sure we got what we paid for with Carvalho.
He had barely kicked a ball in first team football, Wolves bought jota who had had a whole season at Atletico Madrid, and neves started games regularly for Porto in the champions league. That's the difference.
The others they bought in Costa and cavaleiro with similar experience. Real quality players, not gambles that Mendes sold us. That is what I meant sniffer. I'm not convinced on the outlay for carvalho either.
