According to El Nacional, Cristiano Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes has offered Barcelona a chance to sign Portuguese midfielder Vitinha, who has also been on the radar of Real Madrid. The super agent represents both Portuguese stars via his Gestifute agency and is reportedly open to setting up a deal with La Blaugrana.
The Paris Saint-Germain midfielder is an important player for club and country, having earned 21 caps for his country and giving a good account of himself at Euro 2024. He has also made 97 appearances for the French giants since he arrived in 2022 for €41.5 million, scoring 12 goals and setting up nine to help them win consecutive Ligue 1 titles.
The reigning French Champions are unlikely to part with the midfielder without demanding a premium price from Real Madrid or Barcelona, given his contract runs until 2027. Vitinha would certainly elevate Barcelona's midfield, given their issues with replacing Sergio Busquets since he left the club last summer for Inter Miami.
