Mbaye of PSG turned us down.

The plot thickens on that 1. My timeline might be a bit off, but I’ve read that Mbaye wanted to sign for Villa. There’s also a picture of his parents at Villa (maybe Bodymoor Heath) holding a Villa shirt with his name & the number 49 on it, but he’s switched agents & to Jorge Mendes, who wants him to join a 'bigger' club. So far, no takers. I might be wrong, but guess who Garnacho's agent is. ? Also Mendes, as far as I know. This is what I don’t get. As his (Mbaye's) agent, wouldn’t he have been better to advise him to join a club like Villa for, let’s say, £40M, be on a good wage, let him rip it up in the Prem, which would mean his price doubling, and maybe more, then if he was sold to a 'bigger' club, Mendes would be quids in again.
??♂️ I think he’s played this 1 totally wrong on behalf of his client, but on the plus side for him, he’s solved his Garnacho problem. Agents are c***s, end of story. God knows how many careers they’ve ruined. ?

Yeah, the agent change seems to have changed everything. He's gone from sounding like he wants to play and improve to being more than happy to sit on Man City's bench and get rich.

The agent is also getting richer and he really doesn't care once he's placed a player.
