Our status

Something changed?

Yes. When we were lower down we could get players above what we could have done otherwise. When we are at a reasonable level, players above our station, choose to go to the other stations.

 

[Del Woppio]

True. When consider getting Neves, Jota and Nuno in the championship, there's a massive benefit to the Mendes link. We've not seen transfers that 'shocking' since then really

 

[Tony Towner]

Patricio and Moutinho were the last 2. Since it's been players we could have got anyway like Podence or kids with risky inflated fees -Neto worked out, Fabio tbc

His next tier of clients are Fernandes, Dias, Ronaldo etc who aren't coming to Wolves

 

[big mean bunny]

Yeah I am not into the "Mendes gets us access to players we wouldn't otherwise" angle, as it seems tied in with just accepting massive double dip fees from him. Being in the prem gets you access to players, so does scouting, so does smart recruitment and analytics. The idea he is doing us some huge favour grates me a tad.

 

[Bulderdash]

The biggest thing Mendes gives us now is he'll know all the movements and potential movements in the market and who might become available that you wouldn't expect so if we've identified a player but don't think he's available/wouldn't want to join he might just have a bit of info (player not happy with the new contract offer/clubs looking for some funds to rebuild etc) that makes a transfer possible.

Bit of a yellow card machine and I would be surprised if he got a work permit.

 

[YoungWolf]

Has played in Libertadores and probably for Colombian youth teams so I imagine he'd be OK to get one with GBE points system.

He fits the profile of other centre backs we've tried to sign by looks of it (and we keep trying to catch them early but missing out)

Yerson Mosquera: Baba Scouted — BabaGol

Yersron Mosquera of Atletico Nacional is aiming to become the next Davinson Sanchez or Yerri Mina. Can he fulfil the promise?

And it's real, Percy says nearly done for 4.5m. Interest from City, United and Brugge. Not immediate starter but expected to be around squad.

 

[Deano]

He wont get a work permit - he's got an immediate loan to Grasshoppers written all over him

Don't think it will be a problem at all.

 

[prawnking]

Fine if we see something in him... as long as he's not our only CB signing!

 

[YoungWolf]

it makes sense if we also sign a centre back to go into the first eleven straight away. When it comes to Afcon if Boly/Saiss are away, he should be in a position to play a couple of games if needed.
